Investigators would also like to see any dash cam or CCTV footage from the area.
Chapel Street is expected to be closed between Toorak Road and Oxford Street for several hours while detectives investigate.
Any witnesses, anyone with any footage or any other information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at
