A 22-year-old man was charged with murder after the discovery of a body inside a house.
Emergency services were called to an address at Blakemere Court in Ellesmere Port, at around 3.15am on Saturday, May 2, after concerns were raised for the welfare of a person at the property.
Once inside, they discovered the victim – believed to be Slawomir Kulesza, aged 47, from Ellesmere Port – with serious injuries.
The officers administered first aid and paramedics were called to the address to assist but, despite the best efforts of everyone involved, the man sadly died at the scene.
The results of a post mortem carried out on Sunday confirmed that the man had died from multiple injuries.
Arkadiusz Kaczmarek, of Blakemere Court, was arrested on suspicion of murder on Saturday 2 May.
He has now been charged with murder and possession of a bladed article.
He will appear at Warrington Magistrates’ Court via video link this morning.
In a statement on Saturday, Detective Inspector Kate Tomlinson, of Cheshire Police said: "I would like to reassure the local community we are doing everything we can to establish exactly what has happened and, at this stage, it appears to be an isolated incident.
"A team of detectives – assisted by local neighbourhood officers and search trained officers – are currently carrying out a number of enquiries in and around the area. These include house-to-house enquiries, forensic enquiries and CCTV enquiries.
"We have already spoken to a number of people as our investigation continues but I would ask anyone who has not yet spoken to an officer or come forward with information to get in touch.
"I'm particularly keen to hear from anyone who was in the area in the early hours of Saturday 2 May and may have seen or heard something suspicious - even the smallest piece of information can be useful in piecing together a case."
