A woman has died and a man is critically ill after a suspected carbon monoxide leak in a Hounslow flat.

A 26-year-old woman died at the scene and a 32-year-old man was taken to hospital after police were called to Wooldridge Close last night.

The block of flats was evacuated while safety checks were carried out and residents returned home in the early hours.

The Met Police said officers from the Serious Crime Directorate were investigating.
