A man has been arrested after a woman and a man – both aged in their 30s – died in an alleged double fatal stabbing in Sydney.
Police said emergency services were called to the home in Quakers Hill just before 5am on Sunday, responding to reports of a disturbance.
Around half an hour after emergency services responded, police arrested a 47-year-old man after he went to Blacktown police station.
“Officers from Riverstone police area command attended and found a man on the footpath, suffering stab wounds,” police said in a statement.
“A woman, aged in her 30s, was found deceased inside the home. She is yet to be formally identified.”
The man who suffered stab wounds was taken to Liverpool hospital after being treated at the alleged crime scene by paramedics. The man, also aged in his 30s, later died.
“A crime scene has been established, and detectives have commenced an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident,” police said.
The police investigation is ongoing.
