Se­nior po­lice of­fi­cers in­ves­ti­gat­ing the Bel­mont triple mur­der that saw a 23-month-old tod­dler killed say the killing is not linked to the quadru­ple mur­der three weeks ago in Mor­vant that saw an­oth­er child mur­dered.

Of­fi­cers close to the in­ves­ti­ga­tion yes­ter­day re­vealed that their in­quiries since the in­ci­dent had led them to con­clude that the two mass killings were not linked to each oth­er, and they were mov­ing for­ward with in­for­ma­tion they had since re­ceived. They, how­ev­er, re­fused to dis­close fur­ther de­tails.

Yes­ter­day, mem­bers of the Homi­cide Bu­reau re­turned to Bel­mont seek­ing to com­pile more in­for­ma­tion to help them solve the mur­ders. They hand­ed out fly­ers, call­ing on res­i­dents to step up and as­sist them in their probe.
