Tony Steel death: Two charged with murder over fatal Ossett stabbing

Tony Steel's wife said she was "broken" at the death of her husband in Ossett

Two people have been charged with the murder of a man in West Yorkshire.

Tony Steel, 41, was pronounced dead at a house in Parkfield View, Ossett, near Wakefield, after police were called to reports of a stabbing on Friday night.

Christopher Donaldson, 44, and Anthony Sladek, 38, of Parkfield View, were remanded in custody to appear at Leeds Crown Court on Thursday.

In a statement, Mr Steel's wife, Rachel Knight, said of her husband's death: "I've never felt pain like it."

Ms Knight added that she had been left "broken".

Lorraine Hargreaves, 51, also of Parkfield View, has been charged with assault and was also remanded into custody to appear at the crown court on the same date.

Another man and a woman arrested in connection with the investigation had been released under investigation, officers added.

Det Ch Insp Lee Townley, of the Homicide and Major Enquiry Team, said specially trained officers were supporting Mr Steel's family "at this unimaginably difficult time".

He said "extensive inquiries" were taking place to understand the circumstances surrounding Mr Steel's death.

Anyone with information about what happened was urged to get in touch with police, he added.
