Another charged over alleged stabbing murder on Central Coast

A second person has been charged by detectives investigating the alleged stabbing murder of a man on the Central Coast earlier this year.

Emergency services were called to Karalta Road at Erina about 8.50pm on February 3 following reports a man had been stabbed.

On arrival, police located a 42-year-old man suffering a stab wound.

He was treated by NSW Ambulance paramedics, but he died at the scene.

The man has since been formally identified as 42-year-old Shahn Baker.

Initial inquiries were conducted by officers attached to Brisbane Water Police District, before the matter was referred to detectives from the State Crime Command's Homicide Squad under Strike Force Bleat.

As part of ongoing inquiries, strike force investigators attended a home at Erina shortly before 3pm on March 28.

A 28-year-old woman was arrested and has since been charged over her alleged role in the murder and remains before the courts.

Following further inquiries, detectives attended a correctional facility at Silverwater on Monday morning.

A 28-year-old Berkshire Park man was arrested and charged with murder.

Investigations under Strike Force Bleat continue.
