The search for Kyle Clifford following the murder of three women in Bushey appears to have been narrowed as armed police search allotments.
Footage posted on social media appeared to show emergency services rushing towards a cemetery in the Hilly Fields area of Enfield, north London, as the manhunt continues.
Armed police could also be seen in the video, but Hertfordshire Police have said they are unable to confirm whether they had narrowed their search for the suspect to the area.
The cemetery, which has been closed off, is near to a home in Rendlesham Road that was searched by armed police in relation to the murders this morning.

Police helicopters have been seen circling above the area and an air ambulance has reportedly landed at Hilly Fields Park - which also contains Cooks Hole allotments.
There are reports that a vehicle has been found that may be connected to the investigation.
Carol Hunt, 61, who was married to the BBC 5 Live racing presenter John Hunt, and two of their daughters Louise, 25, and Hannah, 28, were found seriously injured at a home in Ashlyn Close, Bushey, yesterday (July 9).
Herts Police and the East of England Ambulance Service were called just before 7pm, but a spokesperson confirmed that “despite their best efforts” all three victims died at the scene.
The manhunt to find 26-year-old Kyle Clifford was then launched with officers searching across the Hertfordshire and north London areas, where they believe he may be.
It is thought that Clifford, from the Enfield area, “may be in possession of a crossbow” and anyone who sees him is urged not to approach but to instead call 999 “straight away”.
