Man arrested on suspicion of murder after woman dies in the street

A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a woman was found seriously injured in the street last night, police said.

Officers were called to Catherine Gardens in Thorpe St Andrew, outside Norwich, just before 11.45pm on Saturday following reports of a woman injured in the street.

Emergency services attended but the woman, in her 40s, was pronounced dead at the scene.

A man, in his 60s, was arrested in Dereham Road in Norwich on Sunday morning on suspicion of murder. He is currently in custody.

Yarmouth Road is closed between the Pound Lane and School Avenue junctions, a statement by Norfolk Constabulary adds.

Detective Superintendent Stacey Murray said: "We are in the early stages of this investigation working to establish the sequence of events which led to the woman's death.

"However, we do believe this to be an incident in which both parties were known to each other.

"We would urge anyone with information that could help the investigation, whether it concerns the incident itself or the events leading up to it, to get in touch."
