Two 17-year-old boys have died after being stabbed in Milton Keynes.
Emergency services were called to an address in Archford Croft, Emerson Valley, shortly before midnight on Saturday, Thames Valley Police said.
One of the victims died at the scene and the other was taken to hospital with serious injuries but later died.
The victims’ next of kin have been informed, and officers have now launched a double murder investigation.
Two men were also injured in the incident, and are in hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
No arrests have yet been made.
Head of crime Detective Chief Superintendent Ian Hunter said: “Thames Valley Police is in the early stages of a double murder investigation after two teenage boys have tragically died in this shocking incident.
“Our priorities at this time are to conduct a thorough investigation and to support those who have been affected. Officers are currently at the scene which has been cordoned off and members of the public are asked to avoid the area.
“I would like to speak to anyone who has any information which could help with our enquiries or anyone who witnessed any suspicious activity in the area of Archford Croft at around the time of the incident around midnight.”
He urged anyone with information, even details that are seemingly “insignificant” to speak to police.
