Probe Into 'Deliberate' House Explosion that Killed Mum
- The Independent Office for Police Conduct is investigating Avon and Somerset Police following a fatal May 3 explosion in Bristol that killed Jo Shaw, 35, and her former partner Ryan Kelly, 41.
- Kelly reportedly detonated an explosive device at the Sterncourt Road home, killing both; police recorded the death as a 'deliberate' homicide.
- The IOPC investigation will examine a 'significant' history of police involvement with Kelly, including allegations of stalking, harassment, and assault over a five-year period from May 2021.
- Watchdog officials are reviewing what steps were taken to safeguard Shaw, who had spoken to police four days before the explosion.
- Separate inquests are scheduled for August at Avon Coroner's Court, as Avon and Somerset Police continue to cooperate fully with the ongoing inquiry.
