Being one of the neighbours I can tell that someone was carried out dead from the same flat just before Christmas time, the whole flat was also completely ripped in pieces, no walls or kitchen cupboards left, a complely drug den
Which flat? Top, middle or bottom?
I'm not sure. I saw the forensic folk moving around the first floor, so I would assume that's the middle.
