Floral tributes were placed outside the semi-detached house in Lincoln Road, Tuxford, Nottinghamshire, which had been cordoned off by Nottinghamshire Police.

Daisy’s family said in a statement: “Our beautiful daughter was the centre of our world and we can’t believe she’s gone.

“She will be so missed by everyone that knew her. She was a such a happy little girl who lit up our lives and made the world brighter.”
