Homicide Squad detectives have charged a man following the death of a woman in Hoppers Crossing earlier this month.
A 51-year-old Hoppers Crossing man has today been charged with murder.
He remains in hospital and a bedside remand hearing was expected to be facilitated last Thursday afternoon (Aug. 17).
The charge follows an incident on August 3 where a 40-year-old Darley woman was fatally injured at a property on Grevillea Crescent.
The parties involved are believed to be known to each other.
