Clutching a teddy bear as she walked to her death: Dramatic CCTV footage of pregnant mother after she killed her three children

CCTV images have been released which show heavily pregnant Fiona Anderson clutching a teddy bear moments before she jumped to her death after stabbing her boyfriend and killing three of their children.
Miss Anderson, 23, is believed to have stabbed Craig McLellan, 24, in a row at her flat in Lowestoft, Suffolk, on Sunday evening after he allegedly dumped her for another woman.
Suffolk Police have confirmed that officers visited the flat as part of their investigation into the alleged stabbing and spoke to Miss Anderson on an intercom system, but they were refused entry.

Early on Monday morning, she left the keys to her flat with a member of staff at the Fyffe hostel for the homeless where Mr McLelland lived.
But the heavily pregnant mother then fell 40ft to her death a few minutes later from a multi storey car park in Gordon Road.
Police found the bodies of her children Levina, three, Addy, two, and 11-month-old Kyden just over three hours later at her ground floor flat.
Mr McLelland is not believed to have been seriously injured when he was stabbed, but it is thought that he was treated at the James Paget Hospital in Gorleston, Norfolk.
Suffolk Police have now referred the incident to the Independent Police Complaints Commission as a result of their involvement with Miss Anderson shortly before her death.

Police released CCTV stills yesterday in an attempt to piece together the 23-year-old's last moments.
Miss Anderson, 23, fell 40ft to her death from a multi-storey car park, where she died at 8am on Monday along with an unborn baby in Lowestoft, Suffolk.
Police found the bodies of her children Levina, three, Addy, two, and 11-month-old Kyden around three hours later at her ground floor flat half a mile away in London Road South.
A post mortem examination carried out on Monday night found the woman died as a result of severe head injuries consistent with a fall from height, Suffolk Police said.
A further post mortem exam failed to ascertain how the three-year-old girl died, with further tests expected.
Examinations of the two other children’s bodies are currently being carried out at Norfolk and Norwich Hospital.
Yesterday, Mr McLelland wept as he left tributes to his three young children, who appear to have been killed by their heavily pregnant mother, who then jumped to her own death.
Craig McLelland, 24, clung to his mother Mandy McLelland for support as he left a Winnie the Pooh balloon and a teddy bear outside the flat where the children died in Lowestoft, Suffolk.
He is thought to have split up with Fiona Anderson, 23, shortly before she fell 40ft to her death from a multi-storey car park, where she died at 8am on Monday along with his unborn baby.
Police found the bodies of their children Levina, three, Addy, two, and 11-month-old Kyden around three hours later at her ground floor flat half a mile away in London Road South.

Unemployed Craig and his mother were allowed through a cordon of police tape for three minutes to look at floral tributes and around 40 cuddly toys and teddy bears left by well-wishers.
He refused to speak to reporters as he left, saying: 'Get out of my face'. He and Mandy, 44, hugged each other in a nearby car park before being driven away.
Mandy who also left flowers at the scene also declined to comment earlier at her home in Lowestoft. She would only say: 'I have lost everything - my whole family'.
Hours before her death on Monday, his ex Fiona Anderson had posted desperate Facebook messages saying her partner had left her for another woman, along with pictures of their unborn daughter.
The 23-year-old put up photographs of her three other children with the message: ‘Mummy will always love you and I’ll never leave you,' adding later: 'I'll keep them safe'.
But she was found dead at the foot of a car park after apparently throwing herself off.
In her Facebook postings, Miss Anderson issued an emotional plea to Craig McLelland.
‘All we did was love you,’ she wrote. ‘We never gave up on you. You have hurt us so much for so long. I gave you everything I could. Your kids worshipped you like a god.'
