Detectives continue to question a man on suspicion of murder following the death of a woman in Stoke-on-Trent yesterday (Friday, November 6).
Emergency services were called to Leigh Street, Burslem, around 4.45pm after it was reported that the 29-year-old had been seriously injured.
Sadly, the woman died shortly thereafter.
A 39-year-old man, who police say is from Bournemouth, was arrested on suspicion of murder and remains in custody today.
The police remain at the scene and there is also a cordon.
June Cartwright, who lives near the scene, said: “This is such a terrible thing that has happened and the community is in shock. My thoughts are with the woman’s family.”
A post-mortem examination is expected to take place this weekend to formally identify the woman.
