Tributes have poured in as two more victims of yesterday’s mass shooting in Plymouth have been pictured.
Jake Davison, 22, shot dead his own mum, Maxine, before walking out of the house, killing four other people, then turning his shotgun on himself.
He murdered three-year-old Sophie Martyn, her father Lee Martyn, 43 in front of horrified onlookers in the quiet residential neighbourhood of Keyham.
The self-described ‘incel’ then went on to kill Stephen Washington, 59, as and Kate Shepherd, aged 66, who have been pictured this evening.
Stephen was walking his dog as he was attacked and Kate was rushed to hospital but later died.
Paying tribute to his dad, Stephen’s son Simon said: ‘After tonight’s events we lost our dad.
‘My mum lost her world. My kids and brothers and sister’s kids lost their granddad.
‘Each and every one of us will miss him deeply, RIP dad you will be missed, love you.’
Terry Billing, a neighbour of mum-of-one Kate, called her a ‘lovely woman and a perfect neighbour’.
He added: ‘She and her husband John were retired. What happened to Kate and all those poor other victims is atrocious.’
