A Hayes man has pleaded guilty to the murder of 25-year-old Lucy Ayris.

Billy White, 22, of Pinkwell Lane, entered the plea at the Old Bailey on Friday (May 29).

He was charged with murder on March 8, a day after police were called to an address in Hayes to reports of a woman suffering stab injuries.

The victim - later named as Lucy - was pronounced dead at hospital and a post mortem gave the cause of death as a stab injury.

White will appear at the same court on July 3 to be sentenced.
