A woman believed to be the mother of three children found dead at a south-west London home has been arrested on suspicion of murder. Officers were called to a property on Thetford Road, New Malden, at about 21:30 BST on Tuesday.
A girl, aged four, and twin boys, aged three, were pronounced dead at the scene. It is understood all three had a disability and were cared for by their 42-year-old mother Tania Clarence. The children are believed to have been born with a life-limiting genetic condition. Their father Gary Clarence, who works as a director at City bank Investec, was not at home at the time of the deaths but is understood to have been informed of the tragedy. An elder child, thought to be around seven or eight years old, was also living at the house but was in good health. On Tuesday night, a 42-year-old woman was taken to hospital for treatment for minor injuries and later She was then arrested on suspicion of murder and taken into custody at a south London police station.
Officers are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident and are currently not giving any details on the possible cause of the deaths. Post-mortem examinations will be arranged in due course, police said.
