One of the victims of a fatal crossbow attack posted a tribute to “women who walk” in a final social media post.

Louise Hunt, 25, was killed along with her 28-year-old sister Hannah and their mother Carol in their home in Bushey.

The murder suspect, 26-year-old Kyle Clifford, was found in a cemetery in Enfield, north London, following a large-scale manhunt and is currently receiving medical treatment.

Rohit Mitra, a friend of Louise, described her as “one of the nicest girls I knew” and said she “always had a smile on her face and was very positive and hardworking.”

Louise ran a dog grooming salon from her home. Customers shared their experiences on the business’s Facebook page.

“You were a beautiful girl inside and out, always showing kindness and love,” one person wrote, saying she was loved by “every dog ​​that came into your salon.”

In her last post on X, Louise posted a message saying: “I admire women who walk.

“It takes A LOT of strength to break a tie. It takes A LOT of self-love to choose yourself.”

Hannah ran her own beauty salon and recently posted on social media that she had been “busy with clients every day.”

Her colleagues at the Anti-Ageing Clinic paid tribute to the “fantastic therapist” on Facebook and said her “clients loved her”.
