A 90-year-old man has died in hospital after a woman believed to be his wife was found dead inside a house in Suffolk.

Officers were called to reports of an unconscious woman at the address in Acheson Way, Aldeburgh, at 10.40am on Monday, Suffolk Police said.

The woman, in her 50s, was found dead inside the property and the man, who had suffered a head injury, was taken to hospital in a critical condition.
