Paramedic found dead along with woman at house in Hednesford featured on hit Channel 4 show
A paramedic who died in a suspected double murder in Staffordshire was the star of a hit Channel 4 show.
West Midlands Ambulance Service worker Daniel Duffield, 24, was named as one of two people found dead at a house in Alpine Drive in Hednesford on Tuesday afternoon.
Police later named Lauren Evans, 22, from Bridgend, South Wales, as the second person found at the home, prompting a murder investigation
Mr Duffield was based at the trust's Willenhall Hub situated in Ashmore Lake Way where his colleagues are being given specialist support.
Daniel appeared in the eleventh series of Channel 4's 999: On the Front Line with his colleague and fellow paramedic, Ellie Johnson.
The pair appeared to have a close relationship, laughing and joking together on the screen.
The show follows West Midlands Ambulance crews responding to emergency calls across the region.
In a tribute on her Facebook page, Ellie wrote that she was still coming to terms with her friend's death.
She said: "Never in a million years did I think I’d have to sit and write this and yet I’m still trying to come to terms with it, but I just want to express how special you was to me, not only my bestfriend at work and the best crew mate but one of my best friends who had a massive impact on day to day life, the most kind hearted person who always had time to help others, who made me laugh every day and always would pick up the phone whenever I was in need.
"Dan I can’t believe your actually gone and I’ll forever cherish the dinner you made me the other week, (surprised how nice you made fajitas tbh) we were ment to go out together this week and I was looking forward to seeing you, even the phone call we had this morning an hour before you was gone I’ll never forget, love you forever Dan."
