Couple found dead at shooting school named by their families

A man and woman found dead at a shooting school on Friday have been named by their families as Robert Jobson, 84, and Rose Jobson, 69.

Humberside Police have launched a murder inquiry but are not looking for anyone else in relation to the incident.

Officers were called to White Lodge Shooting School near the village of Thornton Curtis, north Lincolnshire, at around 3.40pm after reports of a concern for safety.

Paramedics attended but two people were pronounced dead at the scene.

The couple are understood to have run the shooting school – which offered clay shooting tuition and corporate entertainment – for about 30 years.

“Both Robert and Rose’s families continue to be supported by specially trained officers as they come to terms with their loss,” said Chief Inspector Al Curtis.

He said officers were continuing with house-to-house visits “to offer reassurance and engage with the community as they come to terms with what has happened”.

“We can confirm we are not looking for anyone else in relation to their deaths,” added Chief Insp Curtis.
