One Dead, Another Injured in CBD Stabbing
Police are investigating whether the attack was targeted, with no arrests made after a man died and another was taken to hospital.
On Friday night, a man died and another was injured following a suspected stabbing in Melbourne's CBD near Queen Victoria Market, with police called to Frederick Way shortly after 8pm.
Victoria Police established two crime scenes about 100 metres apart between Queen Street and A'Beckett Street, closing major roads while homicide detectives began their investigation.
Homicide detectives are investigating if the stabbing was targeted, as footage circulating on WeChat shows a man in high-vis clothing being assisted by another person.
Police have not made any arrests, and authorities urged anyone with information to contact CrimeStoppers on 1800 333 000 as the investigation into the circumstances remains ongoing.
The incident occurred on the same day three people were stabbed in Dandenong, where emergency services were called to Woodlee Street on Friday morning following reports of injuries.
