A man has been charged with the murder of a woman in Cambridgeshire on Saturday

Timothy Allen, 40, of Curlew Place, St Neots, will appear at Peterborough Magistrates’ court tomorrow morning.

The post mortem of the victim, a woman in her 30s, concluded that she died from multiple cuts to the neck.

The post mortem was conducted yesterday (August 31) at Peterborough City Hospital.

The death is being treated as an isolated incident and no one else is being sought in connection.

The ambulance service alerted police on Saturday over concerns for a man at a property in Curlew Place, St Neots.

Armed officers forced entry to the house, where a woman in her 30s was found dead.

Allen was arrested on suspicion of murder and taken to Hinchingbrooke Hospital with a serious but not life threatening injury.

Flowers have been left at the scene by friends, loved ones and neighbours expressing their sadness about the incident.

According to neighbours the victim and her partner have lived in the house for the past two years and were described as a friendly couple who would always say hello and get involved in the street’s social activities.
