Sacked Leicestershire policeman found dead with family
A former police inspector found fatally injured with his wife and six-year-old daughter had been sacked last week, it has been confirmed.
Toby Day, 37, was found in the house in Melton Mowbray on Thursday after a 15-year-old-girl, believed to be another daughter, raised the alarm.
Police said they had begun a murder inquiry but were not looking for anyone else in connection with the case.
Mr Day was dismissed after a misconduct hearing on 1 December.
Anthony Bartram reports from Melton Mowbray.
