- READ MORE: Who is John Hunt? The BBC Five Live racing commentator
BBC Radio 5 Live's Mark Chapman opened his coverage of England's semi-final by paying a tearful tribute to his colleague John Hunt - whose wife and two daughters were allegedly shot dead with a crossbow in their home last night.
Mr Hunt's wife Carol, 61, and their daughters Louise, 25, and Hannah, 28, were found fatally injured at their £800,000 detached home in Bushey, Hertfordshire, last night.
Police sources said the three women were tied up before being shot in a 'targeted attack' that may have also included 'other weapons'.
Suspect Kyle Clifford, 26, who is the ex-boyfriend of John's daughter Louise, was snared by police this afternoon in Lavender Hill Cemetery, Enfield.
Speaking with a quivered voice on the radio this evening, sports presenter Chapman said: 'This has been a heartbreaking day. John Hunt is our colleague, and our friend, not just to the current 5 Live Sport team, but to all of those who have worked here with him over the past 20 years.
'And also, to all of you who have enjoyed his superb commentaries. So, on behalf of everybody connected to 5 Live Sport, our love and thoughts and support are with John and his family.'

Clifford, 26, was seen being bundled into the back of an ambulance in the Hilly Fields area of Enfield by armed police and paramedics on Wednesday afternoon.

A London Ambulance spokesperson said: 'Ambulance crews and London's air ambulance attended an incident in Lavender Hill Cemetery, Enfield, this afternoon. We treated a man at the scene and took him to a major trauma centre.'
Clifford became Britain's most wanted man after police said they were hunting the ex-soldier in connection with the 'murders' of Carol, 61, and her two daughters Hannah, 28, and Louise, 25, who is the ex-girlfriend of Clifford.
