A police investigation is underway after a man died from injuries sustained in a family harm incident in Wellington this morning.
Police say they were called to the home on Raukawa St, in Strathmore, around 10.50am.
"Investigations are ongoing to understand what has occurred and a scene guard is in place at the address," police said.
"Our thoughts are with the man’s family and friends during this tragic time."
Police say it "appears to have been an isolated incident".
Neighbours told 1News the man was young – and his death was “tragic and sad”.
They understood he had been cut and bled out.
Neighbours also said the man lived in a flat, in a stretch of Kāinga Ora properties tenanted to families, but the housing agency has declined to comment to 1News.
Residents can expect to see an increased police presence in the area.
