A coroner is expected to open the inquest into the death of an eight-year-old schoolgirl who was found with stab wounds at a bungalow at the weekend.
Mylee Billingham, described as a “fun-loving” pupil at St James Primary School in Brownhills, West Midlands, by head teacher Andy Nicholls, died in hospital on Saturday after she was found with stab wounds at a bungalow in Valley View.
Her father Bill Billingham, 54, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder on Saturday.
He remains in a critical condition in hospital and is due to be questioned by police.
