A man has died following a stabbing in Ipswich, sparking a murder investigation.
Emergency services, including police and paramedics, were sent to reports a man had been stabbed in Turin Street just before 2pm today.
An air ambulance crew was also called, but despite their best efforts the man died at the scene.
Eyewitnesses reported seeing forensic vans and officers in white suits in Wherstead Road at around 4pm.
Detectives have cordoned off Turin Street and Kenyon Street while an investigation into what happened takes place.
One man, who lives nearby but did not want to be named, said he opened the door to see several armed officers dealing with an incident.
“It wasn’t very nice to open the door and see so many police here,” he said.
“It’s pretty shocking to see all the emergency services.”
Witnesses to the attack and anyone with information or dash cam footage should call South CID at Landmark House on 101, quoting reference CAD 189 of December 16.
