Following the launch of a murder investigation earlier today (August 21), detectives are now appealing for information.
Officers were called to South Morgan Place in Riverside at 7.37am this morning (August 21) to reports of a seriously injured woman.
Paramedics also attended, however despite their best efforts, a woman in her 30s was pronounced dead at the scene. Her next of kin have been informed.
A 37-year-old man, who is known to the victim, was arrested in connection shortly after on Seawall Road. He remains in police custody.
Anyone who was in or near South Morgan Place or Seawall Road, between 7.30am and 8.30am, are asked to check their private CCTV or dashcam footage.
We particularly want to hear from people who were travelling between these areas, including Wellington Street, Clare Road, Penarth Road, and East Tyndall Street, during this time who have not yet spoken with officers.
Detective Chief Inspector Matthew Davies said: “We have a dedicated team of investigators who have been carrying out extensive enquiries in the area, and I would like to thank everyone who has reached out with information so far.
“We are appealing to anyone with CCTV, dashcam, or ring doorbell footage, or anyone else who may have seen something suspicious, to come forward.
“Specifically, we’re looking for anything involving a grey Ford Fiesta in the mentioned areas.”
