A 35-year-old man was arrested and taken to Redcliffe Hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries, where he was charged with murder overnight. He may appear at a bedside hearing on Friday.

Shocked neighbours heading off to work or for a morning walk said it was usually a quiet neighbourhood.
