in Brunswick yesterday.
Emergency
services were called to a Hope Street property about 5.20am on Thursday 5 May,
following reports of a stabbing.
A
61-year-old Coburg man died en route to hospital, while a 59-year-old Brunswick

A
44-year-old woman was discharged from hospital this afternoon and interviewed
by police.

Homicide
Squad detectives continue to appeal for public assistance to locate the driver
of a dark coloured ute with tool boxes on the rear and a snorkel attached to
the driver’s side.
Detectives
believe that the woman was given a lift from the Brunswick area and dropped

this time there is nothing to indicate that person was involved in the incident
and is being treated as a witness only.
