Two men in their 30s have been charged with murder after another man in his 20s was found dead in Western Australia's South West.
Two men in their thirties have been charged with murder following the death of a man in South West Western Australia. Emergency services were dispatched to the scene at approximately 1:20am on Sunday, where they found an individual suffering from critical injuries at a bus stop in Australind, located about 158 kilometers south of Perth. Paramedics arrived on the scene to find an unresponsive man with critical injuries, and he was subsequently taken to Bunbury Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.
The men, both aged between 30, were apprehended on Sunday and charged with murder on Monday. According to police, the incident began around 1am when an altercation took place in a car park on The Promenade in Australind. The 29-year-old victim was reportedly walking away from the scene when the two accused individuals followed him.
It is alleged that they assaulted him with a pole. Subsequently, police cordoned off a significant area in Australind, encompassing a car park and two bus stops, as investigators meticulously examined the location.
The damaged vehicles were discovered behind police tape in the car park of a shopping complex. The accused men are scheduled to face Bunbury Magistrates Court on Monday to face the serious charges.
