As put by Detective Inspector Craig Sheridan, Central District Investigations Manager:
Police conducting a homicide investigation into the death of a woman in Roslyn Palmerston North yesterday, are now following positive lines of enquiry to identify those involved.
Emergency services were called to the Featherston Street address around 12.10am after reports of a person being seriously injured. The victim received medical attention but died at the scene.
