Woman, 44, dies after stabbing inside shop as man, 47, arrested on suspicion of murder
A WOMAN has been stabbed to death inside a shop in broad daylight as cops arrest a man, 47, on suspicion of murder.
Police were called to Stanley Road, in Bootle, Merseyside, on Friday evening at just after 5pm.
Merseyside Police Det Insp Gavin Mulcahy said: "It is desperately sad that a woman lost her life earlier today as a result of this incident.
"Our thoughts first and foremost are with her family, who are now left to grieve her loss in the most tragic of circumstances. They will be fully supported by specialist officers in the coming days and weeks."
Det Insp Mulchahy added: "We are in the very early stages of our investigation but this is currently being treated as a domestic assault in which the suspect and victim knew each other, and we are not looking for anyone else in connection with it."
