Man charged with murder over Waldronville death

Police have formally charged a 22 year-old man with murder after a woman was found dead at a Waldronville address on Friday night.

Vicki Lee Warington, aged 48, of Dunedin, was found dead inside the property after police were called about 6.30pm on Friday.

A second charge, of wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, has been laid over injuries sustained by the property's male occupant, who was found outside the property.

The 22 year-old is due to appear in the Dunedin District Court tomorrow.

No one else is being sought in relation to the incident.

About 20 investigators with other police staff and specialist teams, including ESR, are working on the case and started a scene examination yesterday.
