00:00About 2am on Monday the 6th of October 2025, emergency services were called to East Street

00:06Bega following reports of a physical altercation between two groups.

00:11Officers attached to the South Coast Police District attended and on arrival found the

00:16body of a 43 year old man in the park suffering from stab wounds.

00:22Unfortunately he later died from those injuries.

00:25A second man aged 45 suffered stab wounds during the same incident and he was taken to Southeast

00:31Regional Hospital in a stable condition.

00:34He has since been released.

00:39Police established a crime scene and Strike Force Nackstone was formed to investigate.

00:45That strike force has been assisted by police from the State Crime Command Homicide Squad

00:51and the Southern Region Office.

00:52About 6.30pm on Thursday the 30th of October 2025, officers attached to the South Coast Police

00:58District executed a search warrant at a residential premise in Bega in relation to our ongoing

01:05homicide investigation.

01:06A knife and electronic devices were seized during those searches.

01:12Nobody was home at the time.

01:15On Wednesday the 12th of November 2025, just this last Wednesday, officers attached to the

01:19South Coast Police District, assisted by officers from the State Emergency Services Organisation,

01:27conducted a search in and around the Glebe Wetlands on East Street Bega.

01:33And the surrounding area to locate a knife, we believe may have been discarded shortly after

01:39the homicide.

01:40The weapon we are looking for is believed to be a small, double-edged dagger.

01:50We urge anybody with information to come forward.

01:53They can do so anonymously by either contacting Bega Police Direct or by contacting Crimestoppers

01:59on 1-800-333-000.

02:00Can I just reassure the community that at this stage there's no information to suggest that

02:07the wider community is at risk in relation to this.

02:11It's true there has been a house fire in the vicinity of where the homicide occurred.

02:16We certainly haven't ruled that out as being related, but at this stage there's nothing

02:20to suggest that the wider or broader community is at any risk.

02:23the result of this activity, which is important for the

02:35home run by the word response.
