Floral tributes and teddy bears left at scene after boy, 4, killed by dad in murder-suicide at Paisley flat
TOUCHING floral tributes and teddy bears have been left outside a flat after a boy was killed in a devastating murder-suicide.
Kayden Frank, four, was discovered at a property on Argyle Street in Paisley at around 8pm on Monday night.
Emergency crews swarmed to the residential street after the alarm was raised.
Sadly, Kayden was found dead alongside the body of his 38-year-old father, named locally as Steven Frank, who killed his son before taking his own life.
Police confirmed his death is being treated as murder following the post-mortem.
And they are not treating his dad's death as suspicious.
Heartbreaking tributes have been left outside the flat where Kayden was found.
Six bouquets of flowers have been laid on the pavement at the scene.
Some stuffed animals and teddy bears were spotted lying near the main door of the flats.
A small candle was also placed along with the tributes.
