Man in court after suspected strangulation of 80-year-old woman
A man has been charged with murder following the death of an 80-year-old woman in Queen’s Park.
Steven Clark, 50, of Bravington Road, appeared in custody at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Friday. He is due to appear at the Old Bailey today.
Police were called at around 4.15am on Wednesday of last week to an address in Fourth Avenue, North Kensington.
London Ambulance Service crews were already in attendance and reported that a woman, Ursula Uhlemann, had been pronounced deceased.
Clark was arrested and later charged.
Officers believe the pair were known to each other.
Ursula’s family have been informed and are being supported by specially-trained officers.
A post-mortem examination gave provisional cause of death as compression to the neck.
Police from the Specialist Crime Command are investigating.
Anyone who has information that could help police with their enquiries should call 101 or post @MetCC ref CAD 749/20 Mar.
