Murder investigation underway after man dies in Hull stabbing
The 45 year old was found injured in the Arundel Close area last night
A murder investigation has started after a man was stabbed in Hull.
The 45 year old was found injured outside a property in the Arundel Close area last night (Wednesday 19th June).
Humberside Police and other emergency services were called to help the man at around 10pm, but he died from stab wounds a short while later in hospital.
The victim's family are being supported and police patrols in the area have been stepped up as enquiries take place.
Detectives are going house-to-house asking people if they saw anything - and they're also reviewing CCTV.
Two men, aged 44 and 47, and a woman, aged 39, were arrested at the scene on suspicion of murder and all three remain in police custody whilst enquiries continue.
Senior Investigating Officer, Detective Chief Inspector Jayne Goodens said: “I understand an incident of this nature will likely cause shock and concern amongst the local community.
“However, as part of our enquiries conducted so far, I would like to offer some reassurance that we do believe this to be an incident between individuals known to each other, with no wider risk to the public.
“Since we received the report, I have had a dedicated team of detectives conducting extensive lines of enquiries, including house to house and reviewing CCTV footage in and around the area to obtain a clear picture of what has happened.
“A scene guard remains in place whilst our investigation continues, and those living in the area can expect to see an increased number of officers over the coming days, providing reassurance, conducting patrols and speaking with local residents. If anyone has any concerns at all, please do come and speak to us.
“I would urge anyone who has information that may assist with our enquiries, or has CCTV or dashcam footage from the area around the time of the incident to please contact us on our non-emergency number 101 quoting log 563 of 19 June.
