Police searching for a man suspected of killing his six-year-old sister, his mother and her partner have recovered a weapon from the crime scene.
Police are continuing to search for 21-year-old Jed Allen who they want to question in connection with the deaths.
The bodies of Janet Jordon, 48, her six-year-old daughter Derrin and Philip Howard, 44, were found at their home in Didcot, Oxfordshire, on Saturday.
Mr Allen, who has a distinctive black spider tattoo on his left hand, is described as white, about 6ft (1.8m) tall and stocky.
Thames Valley Police confirmed he was known to the force and has warned the public not to approach him, although he is not considered dangerous to the wider community.
Mr Ward added: "We are conducting a number of searches to try and locate the suspect. These will continue today and extra officers and national resources have been deployed in order to assist us with that.
"We have recovered a weapon from within the crime scene but our search for the suspect continues today."
The victims' bodies were found in a house in Vicarage Road at about 20:20 BST on Saturday after police were alerted by concerned neighbours.
Police said the cause of death was believed to be stab wounds.
More than 100 officers - some of them armed - have been taking part in searches, which involved closing Oxford University Parks where Mr Allen used to work as a groundsman. The park has since reopened.
Police said the presence of armed police was "purely for the safety of the searching officers".
