Experts investigating the killing of four people in the House of Horrors said the suspect was arrested at a hospital on Tuesday – as it became clear that one victim had died only while her own apartment was being decorated.
NHS hospital employee Dolet Hill, 64, was found stabbed to death on a property in Bermondsy along with 58-year-old partner Denton Burke, daughter of Ms. Hill Tanisha “Rachkel” Ophori-Akufo, 45, and granddaughter Samantha Drummond, 27.
When officers entered the house, they also found a man and officers deployed a stun gun to detain him. He was then arrested on suspicion of murder.
This 28-year-old man from Louisham is being treated in hospital. He is in stable condition, but has been arrested.
The family of all the dead has been notified, the Sofia Police confirmed on Tuesday.

Neighbors heard female screams before the bodies were found in the three-bedroom terrace house at 1:40 a.m. Monday. Detectives spent 12 hours in Samantha’s apartment, four and a half miles from Forest Hill on Monday, and asked neighbors about her latest moves and social media activity.
The victim, Dolet Hill, was in the mid-1960s
One of them paid tribute to “the sweetest girl you can meet” and revealed that she had only recently moved back to her family home in Bermondzi while working in her apartment.
Rudra Brambhat told Standard: “The police knocked on our door and asked us the last time we saw Samantha. They asked about her contact numbers and Instagram and everything else. They were in the apartment all day.
“She had recently moved out while her bathroom was ready. Samantha took her cat and returned to the family home. We are ruined. We got along so well. She loved music and worked at NatWest. ”

She added: “She told me she was so excited about decorating her apartment, she told me about the colors she chose. Now Samantha will never enjoy it. She was a beautiful person in every way, the best person and the perfect neighbor. “
A Jamaican-born mother of two, Ms. Hill, recently underwent cancer treatment and worked as a housekeeper at Guy and St. Thomas Hospital, friends said. The churchgoer went on charity missions in Ghana to give the orphans clothes, food and toys.
Tracy Henry, the surviving daughter, was “absolutely devastated” and could not talk to anyone who had “lost four members of her family.”

The friend added: “We just don’t know why this happened. This is a really bad time for all of us. ” Venice Reed, Mrs. Hill’s niece, said: “She was very loving, very kind, very generous. She works very hard to support her two girls and two grandchildren. She doesn’t deserve it. “
Neighbors were warned by a woman who was screaming for five minutes before seeing ambulance workers frantically trying to rescue the victims in the middle of Delaford Road. Police are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.
