A man has been charged with murder after a 27-year-old from Flintshire died on Thursday.

Mum of four Jade Ward was found dead at a property on Chevrons Road, Shotton, just before 9:20am on August 26.

Russell Norman James Marsh 29, of Chevrons Road, Shotton has been remanded in custody and will appear before magistrates on Monday.

Detective Chief Inspector Jon Salisbury-Jones said: 'I would like to thank the local community for all the valuable assistance they have provided.

Balloons were released in Ms Ward's memory by her family.

It comes after a balloon release was held on Chevrons Road on Saturday in memory of Ms Ward, which was organised by her devastated sister Taylor Wesley.

Ms Wesley said: "There were loads of people, I would say a couple of hundred. It was a great turnout. I cried my eyes out and sobbed all the way through.

"She would have been so proud and it shows just how loved she was."
