Tributes have been paid to a couple who
were stabbed to death after finishing a
night shift at a Matalan store in Cardiff.
The bodies of 21-year-old Zoe Morgan,
and Lee Simmons, 33, were found in
Queen Street at 5.50am this morning.
‘I’ve never met such a kind, caring, sweet,
loving and funny girl in all my 22 years of
employment,’ said Melanie Davidson, who
was Miss Morgan’s previous manager a
McDonald’s.
‘She was beautiful, not just on the outside
but on the inside.’
A spokeswoman for the University of
South Wales, where Miss Morgan
graduated in June, added: ‘We are deeply
saddened to learn of the loss of Zoe, who
had been a popular and well-liked student
who was now doing well in her chosen
career.
‘Our thoughts are
with her family as we
come together, as a
close-knit university
community, to
support our students
and colleagues who
knew Zoe during her
time with us.’
A JustGiving page was also set up in
memory of the graduate, which described
her as ‘fun, sweet and exceptionally kind
and honest’.
Police have arrested a 20-year-old man
from Castleton, Newport, on suspicion of
murder.
It is believed the suspect knew Mr
Simmons, from Grangetown, and Miss
Morgan, from Llandaff North.
Officers are not
looking for anyone
else in connection
with the murders.
Post-mortem
examinations will
take place to
determine the causes
of death but it is
believed both victims sustained stab
wounds.
A force spokesman added the families
were being supported by specially trained
liaison officers.
