Dead are Leonard Pollard, Latoya Telford and their toddler, Nakasia Pollard.

Details are sketchy but police are working on the theory that the fire may have been caused by an arsonist.
According to reports Leonard Pollard and Latoya Telford had been having domestic problems for years which led to Latoya Telford leaving the home but she had returned to the home only last night with her baby. Leon Pollard, a security guard and the brother of  Leonard Pollard, related that sometime last week he noticed Leonard – who lived on the upper flat of the building – tied a hang-man knot in the roof of the building.
More details in a subsequent report.
