A prayer service has been held for the victims.

The man has been named by police as 20-year-old Arcan Cetin.

He was arrested after being seen walking along a road by officers, who say he was taken into custody "without incident".

Mr Cetin's vehicle has also been recovered, and police say they are obtaining search warrants for his residence.
