Gary Dunmore and Josh Dunmore Wiki – Gary Dunmore and Josh Dunmore Biography
Inquiries into the deaths of Gary Dunmore, 57, and his son Josh Dunmore, 32, opened today at Peterborough Town Hall, Cambridgeshire. Inquiries into the death of a father and son who were shot dead in an alleged custody battle opened just days after their joint funerals.
It comes just days after hundreds of mourners flocked to West Chapel in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, for his funeral. Josh was found with shotgun wounds to the head and chest and pronounced dead at 9:40 p.m. on March 29 at his home in Bluntisham, Cambridgeshire, according to the inquest.
Gary was also found dead at his home in Sutton, Cambridgeshire, 20 minutes later, with gunshot wounds to the head and torso. Coroner Simon Milburn said the investigation into Josh was likely to be “put on hold” due to police inquiries. But he added that post-mortem examinations were carried out on both men on April 3 at Peterborough City Hospital.
Gary Dunmore and Josh Dunmore Cause of Death
Stephen Alderton, 66, the maternal grandfather of Josh’s young son, was arrested earlier that night and has been charged with his murder and possession of a firearm. The family of the victims paid tribute to the ‘devoted’ father and son in a statement issued through Cambridgeshire Police last month.
The family said: ‘Josh was a devoted father and a loving uncle. He was a wonderful son and brother and leaves behind an extensive group of family and friends.
“He will be sorely missed and the devastation this has caused will never heal. Gary was the most devoted son, brother, father, and grandfather, giving everything for his loved ones. “He was a gentle and generous person who always put others before himself and he will be greatly missed by his family and all who knew and loved him.”
He had shown up at a boxing gym near his home “in high spirits” after receiving the good news, his friends said, and he was looking forward to having his child for a week over Easter. But Mr. Dunmore and his father were soon reportedly shot dead by the father of his ex-lover, Mr. Alderton, in a ‘targeted’ double shooting.

Cambridgeshire Police Chief Superintendent Jon Hutchinson said at the time: “At this time we are not looking for any further people in connection with the incident.”
“Once we identified that familial relationship, it became quite apparent why this attack could have occurred and this is clearly an isolated, targeted attack.” “One line of inquiry that we are focusing on is that the people in custody are known to the deceased and have had recent contact with them.”
