A man has been arrested after two bodies were discovered in a house, police said today.

A spokesman for Merseyside Police said the couple, believed to be in their late 50s or early 60s, were found at a Liverpool property after a call this afternoon from a member of the public.

He added that a 35-year-old man was arrested at the scene and has been taken to a police station for questioning.

The scene, on Redington Road, Woolton, has been cordoned off and the police are conducting house to house enquiries.
