The leader of South Holland District Council has expressed his sympathy over this morning’s shootings.
Coun Gary Porter said: “On behalf of all councillors and colleagues I offer my sympathy to those affected by the tragic events this morning.
“Spalding is a harmonious and peaceful town with a strong sense of community so we are naturally shocked by what appears to be an isolated family incident.
“On a practical level, the council will support the police with their investigations.
“The incident took place in the grounds of the Castle Sports swimming pool which is of course closed until further notice. No members of staff were directly involved in the incident however we will be offering support to colleagues that work at the swimming pool.”
