A manhunt is under way after a woman was killed in a "targeted" incident in Luton.
Police have begun a murder investigation after being called to Turners Road North around 11.45am on Monday to reports of an altercation.
Emergency services attended, but a 46-year-old woman died in hospital and another woman in her 20s was injured. Detectives say the suspect escaped on a black and red electric scooter.
Bedfordshire Police say they are searching for Jacob Clark, 25, as part of their investigation.
They have described him as "very slim", around 5ft9 to 5ft10, dressed all in black, with a hood.
"We understand Jacob to have close-cropped hair, which may mean he looks different from the image provided," said Detective Inspector Adam Bridges.
"It is absolutely imperative that we locate the person responsible as soon as possible," added DI Bridges.
"This is a murder investigation, and as such I would urge anyone who knows where Jacob is to contact police immediately. If you believe you have seen him, please do not approach him and dial 999 straight away.
"I would like to remind the public that we are treating this as a targeted attack and we are maintaining a high police presence in the area for additional reassurance."
