A taxi driver killed in Melbourne as he walked home earlier this week was a Somalian refugee who had been living in New Zealand.
Muktar Mahmud, 31, was found injured in the suburb of Fitzroy shortly after 11.30pm on Wednesday.
Victoria Police said in a statement that attending police and paramedics worked on him but he died at the scene.
Detective Inspector Mick Hughes told the Herald Sun that Mahmud had just finished a shift when he was attacked.
Two people sitting in nearby Condell Reserve heard a faint cry for help before seeing a young man with shoulder-length fair hair running through the park carrying a satchel.
