Doorbell footage has emerged of the moment triple crossbow attack suspect Kyle Clifford supposedly left home armed with what is believed to be a bag of weapons.
In the clip, a man is seen emerging from an alleyway that leads to the property in Hertfordshire, where the three women were found dead.
The man, dressed in all black, is then seen pacing towards a vehicle armed with a large object underneath his right arm, which appears to be covered in cloth.
The man, believed to be Clifford was also filmed carrying a bag that police fear could contain even more weapons, before climbing into a black seat of a car, that was found abandoned earlier today in Enfield.

Clifford is yet to speak with officers and is in a serious condition in hospital following the crossbow deaths. The 26-year-old was found with injuries in the Hilly Fields area of Enfield, north London, on Wednesday following a manhunt which lasted for a number of hours.
Carol Hunt, 61, the wife of BBC 5 Live commentator John Hunt, and two of their daughters, Hannah, 28, and Louise, 25, were found fatally injured at a house in the quiet cul-de-sac of Ashlyn Close in Bushey, Hertfordshire, just after 7pm on Tuesday.
Hertfordshire Police said a crossbow has since been recovered as part of the investigation.
Police confirmed they had received no earlier reports after exploring whether there had been previous contact with Clifford or the victims – as it emerged Louise was the ex-partner of the suspect.

During his trip to the Nato summit in Washington DC, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer told the BBC: “First let me just say how awful this incident was, and our condolences and thoughts are obviously with all of the family members and family affected.
“In relation to crossbows, the Home Secretary has announced that she will look at the legislation, and she will.”
Lea Holloway, 60, a childhood friend of Carol Hunt, said: “We grew up together and were pregnant at the same time. This is the stuff nightmares are made of.
“I was there the night she met John (Hunt). It was in a nightclub in Hemel Hempstead. We went out together, went to birthdays and events. It’s very difficult. She was the nicest, kindest, sweetest person you could ever meet. A beautiful person.”
Police in Ashlyn Close, Bushey, Hertfordshire, where the three women were found deadPAClifford was found injured in Lavender Hill Cemetery in Enfield, north London and was taken to a major trauma centre for treatment.
Police said no shots had been fired by officers and no arrest had yet been made.
