Two shop workers who
were in a relationship were stabbed to death in one of Britain's busiest
shopping streets as they left a night shift this morning.
Matalan employees Zoe
Morgan, a 21-year-old window dresser, and shop assistant Lee Simmons, 34, were
attacked and killed as they left the store in Cardiff's Queen Street.
A colleague said:
'This is a terrible tragedy. They had only started seeing each other and made a
lovely couple. We are all in bits.'
The farmhouse home of
20-year-old hotel worker Andrew Saunders was today searched by police
investigating the deaths.
Sales assistant Lee
and fashion graduate Zoe met while working shifts together - and he dubbed her
his 'Tinkerbell'.
But they pair were
attacked at 5.50am as they left the store, which is Matalan's first high street
branch in Britain.
Police officers
flooded Cardiff's main Queen Street at around 6am after the couple were found
dead outside high street stores Boots and Matalan.
