Man 'killed ex-partner's mother and leapt to his death'

A man stabbed his ex-partner’s mother to death then left a chilling message in blood before leaping from the top floor of a city centre car park today, a police source said.

His victim was named locally as Carol Berry, 66, who was knifed at her semi-detached bungalow in the Bradley area of Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, at about 6.40pm yesterday.
