A 21-year-old man is due in court this morning charged with murdering his partner and their baby daughter.

Anthony Marsh, of Myrtle Avenue, Totton, is accused of murdering 24-year-old Stephanie Bellinger and her ten-month-old daughter Lili, who were found dead at their home in Totton on Saturday morning.

A post-mortem examination by a Home Office pathologist on Lili’s body has revealed that the cause of death was a stab wound.

Marsh is due to appear at New Forest Magistrates’ Court in Lyndhurst at 9.30am today.
