A mother and her baby daughter have been stabbed to death, while a man covered in blood was hit by a car close to the grisly crime scene.<\/p>\n
The tragedy was discovered after reports of the injured man being struck by a vehicle near a supermarket in Queensland’s southeast.<\/p>\n
The man with neck wounds was hit in Logan, about 30km south of Brisbane, on Thursday morning. <\/p>\n
Police were trying to reach the man’s next of kin when officers discovered the bodies of a 38-year-old woman and her one-year-old daughter in the family’s nearby home.<\/p>\n
Both died from critical injuries from an edged weapon, Detective Superintendent Chris Ahearn said. <\/p>\n
“We believe the three of these people live in a family unit at that house \u2013 child, mother and father,” Ahearn said. <\/p>\n
“Our investigations are focusing heavily on the nature of their relationship and living arrangements at that house.”<\/p>\n
Witnesses raised the alarm after seeing a man covered in blood running along a footpath before he was hit by a black utility about 300m from the family home.<\/p>\n
Evidence markers have been placed along the footpath, marking a trail of blood leading from the house. <\/p>\n
The man remains in a serious condition and is under police guard in hospital.<\/p>\n
There were no domestic violence orders involving the couple, police said, adding there was no further threat to the community. <\/p>\n
The home remained a crime scene as detectives appealed for anyone with information or dashcam footage to contact police. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A mother and her baby daughter have been stabbed to death, while a man covered in blood was…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":325701,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[85,67,42,43,40,38,41,39],"class_list":["post-325700","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-australia","tag-crime-and-justice","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/325700","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=325700"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/325700\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/325701"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=325700"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=325700"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=325700"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
