'I need someone to come over... gun tragedy head's plea after husband hit her at top school

Epsom College's Emma Pattison, 45, and her daughter, Lettie, were found dead at their home within the grounds of the private Surrey boarding school last February.

Senior coroner Richard Travers concluded yesterday George Pattison, 39, had shot Emma and Lettie without lawful reason.

He also ruled Pattison, a chartered accountant, died by suicide after shooting himself with the same gun.

Evidence from Deborah Kirk, Emma's sister, was read to the inquest at Surrey Coroner's Court in Woking.

She said she received a call from the headteacher at just before 11pm on February 4, telling her that Pattison had hit her and their dog, Bella.
