Woman found dead in suspected stabbing in Richmond, Vic.

Police are at the scene of a fatal stabbing in the inner city suburb of Richmond.

Neighbours have spoken of a confronting scene after a woman was found dead in a house on Westbank Terrace about 4pm.

Police are yet to confirm the exact circumstances of the death but investigators are treating it as suspicious, a Victoria Police spokesman said.

An Ambulance Victoria spokeswoman said paramedics were called just before 4pm following reports of a stabbing.

She declined to comment further and said the matter was now a police investigation.

A neighbour to the property told Channel Ten the victim was a woman in her 40s.

He said a man had knocked on his door about 4pm and they had both gone next door to discover the woman’s body.

One of the victim’s friends had also arrived to do a welfare check when the woman failed to show up at work, Channel Ten reported.
