A homicide investigation is underway in Hawke’s Bay after a woman was found unresponsive at a Napier house this morning.

A spokesperson said police were called at about 4.25am to a residential address on Nuffield Ave, Marewa, after a woman was found unresponsive.

“Sadly, she died at the scene,” the spokesperson said.

“At this stage, Police are not in a position to provide further details about the identity of the woman, however, will look to do so in due course.”
