Mass. man being questioned in London in wife's, child's deaths

LONDON -- A British man whose American wife and daughter were found shot to death in their Massachusetts home was being quizzed by detectives at the U.S. Embassy in London today.

Police said they drove Neil Entwistle, 27, to the embassy, but he was not under arrest.

"Neil Entwistle has agreed to voluntarily attend the U.S. Embassy in London to speak to American authorities in connection with the deaths of his wife and daughter," Nottinghamshire Police spokeswoman Rebecca Tomlinson said.

The embassy said Entwistle was speaking to U.S. and British law-enforcement officials, but would not indicate how long the questioning would last.

The bodies of Rachel Entwistle, 27, and her 9-month-old daughter, Lillian, were found in a bed in their home in Hopkinton, about 25 miles (40 kilometers) west of Boston, on Sunday evening. Both were killed by bullets from a small-caliber gun, according to the autopsy results.
