Byronie Gawith and her three children were killed in the blaze last week
West Yorkshire Police have arrested four more people in connection with a fatal house fire in Bradford.
Bryonie Gawith, who was aged 29, was killed in the attack on her house on Westbury Road in the city on Wednesday (August 21st).
As well as this, Bryonie's three children - Denisty Birtle, nine, Oscar Birtle, five-, and 22-month-old, Aubree Birtle - also died in the fire.
Previously, three people had been arrested on suspicion of murder as police followed investigations into the fire, believing it to have been deliberately started.
Of the three, one man was released without charge, whilst a second remains in police custody on suspicion of murder and attempted murder.
A third suspect has also been arrested, but is currently in hospital in a critical condition.
Now, officers have confirmed that another four people have been arrested in connection with the incident.
A 25-year-old man was arrested in the Keighley area on suspicion of murder and attempted murder in the early hours of Monday morning (August 26th).
Similarly, two other people - a 54-year-old woman and a 42-year-old man - were arrested at the same address on suspicion of assisting an offender.
A fourth man was later arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder just after 10am on Monday morning after turning himself in at a police station.
Investigations into the incident are still ongoing and West Yorkshire Police are continuing to appeal for more information and witnesses following the attack.
Those who may have seen the incident take place are being asked to get in touch as soon as possible by calling 101 and quoting Operation Pockliffe.
