A woman who lives nearby, but did not want to be named, said it was a shock to hear of the deaths.
“It is awful,” she said.
She said early on Monday morning, her daughter had returned from work and told her there was an ambulance and police at the top of the road.
Then her granddaughter told her they were still there “and a white tent was up in the street and [the police] are going to be there a few days”.
She said many older people lived in the neighbourhood. They “just live… and don’t want any trouble”, she said, adding it was normally a quiet area.
“It is not like this. I mean you get police here now and again, but not like this. Not at all.”
Another woman, who said she has lived in the area for 17 years, echoed her shock at the fatal stabbings nearby.
The woman, who also did not want to be named, said she did not know the deceased people personally, but “they have been round here a long time”.
