Police would not say whether he is the alleged victim, only that the pair was known to each other and it was not believed anyone else was involved.

The woman contacted emergency services at 8.40am.

They rushed to Medina Street but the man was already dead.

Neighbours told 9News a couple had lived at the house for the last 10 years and were often out on the street walking their dogs.
