A 23-year-old woman has become the 14th person arrested in connection with the deaths of two teenagers in Bristol.

Mason Rist (15) and Max Dixon (16) died after being stabbed on Illminster Avenue in Knowle West on Saturday 27 January.

Avon and Somerset Police say the woman was detained on Wednesday night (7 February) on suspicion of assisting an offender and has since been released under investigation.

To date five people have been charged with murdering Mason and Max, including 44-year-old Hartcliffe man Anthony Snook.

The other four are all teenagers who we can't name for legal reasons.

Meanwhile two people, 26-year-old Jamie Ogbourne and Bailey Westcott who is 22, have been charged with assisting an offender.
