This is the first picture of a local butcher who is thought to have murdered his wife before plunging to his death from a multi-storey car park.
Oliver Ruse, 37, was found dead at the foot of a six-storey car park in Bury St Edmunds at 12.10pm yesterday.
After finding the body, police went to a cottage the man’s wife is thought to have been renting in nearby Long Melford, where they discovered her body inside at 2.40pm. rnThe deaths leave the couple’s four daughters - all believed to be aged between 11 and six - without parents. They are now being looked after by family members.
According to locals Mr Ruse, described as a devout Catholic, had separated from his wife who is believed to have come from West Africa, more than a year ago but the couple stayed in touch for the sake of their four daughters who all went to local Catholic schools.
Historic Long Melford, once famous for its dozens of antique shops was the backdrop for the hit 80’s TV series starring Ian McShane as the rogue antique dealer Lovejoy.
