Despite one man having been charged and remanded in custody the investigation is still very much on going and we are determined to build as full a picture as possible.

The 19 year old woman arrested yesterday continues to be questioned and we are still eager to speak to anyone who can assist. Therefore I’m repeating our appeal for any information, no matter now insignificant you think it may be, to be passed to the investigation team as soon as possible.

The latest arrests come a day after police arrested a 19-year-old woman from Connah’s Quay on suspicion of conspiracy to commit murder.
