The woman who died following a stabbing in Manchester has been named as 43-year-old Alberta Obinim.
A 22-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder following the incident in the Gorton area near Longsight, which happened at around 11.20pm on Sunday, Greater Manchester Police said.
Two other people, a 17-year-old girl and 64-year-old man, also sustained life-threatening injuries after suffering “serious stab wounds” at a property on the road, according to the force.
Police are speaking to witnesses to establish the full circumstances surrounding the incident, but early indications suggest the suspect was known to the victims and it is being treated as an isolated incident.
A crime scene is still in place on Barnard Road in the Gorton area while police continue to investigate.
Detective Superintendent Toby Facey said: “We understand that the local community and further afield across Greater Manchester will be rightly shocked and concerned after waking up and hearing this tragic news this morning.
“Our thoughts remain with those affected and their loved ones at this difficult time. We are doing all we can to support them.”
