The murder of Ann Widdecombe dominated UK headlines for a second day, shifting from arrest to manhunt. Overnight, the 26-year-old suspect was released without charge, and by morning, outlets reported he was 'no longer part of the investigation'. Police revealed Widdecombe was attacked nearly 24 hours before her body was found, and a missing 29-minute window became a focus. By afternoon, a fresh manhunt was underway, with officers searching hedgerows and seeking a 'suspicious car'. Nigel Farage claimed the killing appeared premeditated. Police refused to release CCTV or suspect descriptions to avoid compromising the probe. The story crowded out other news, though the US-Iran Strait of Hormuz tensions and a London heatwave bushfire received intermittent coverage. In the evening, England's World Cup quarter-final against Norway took over live coverage, with Jude Bellingham's equaliser forcing extra time after a disallowed Norway goal.
