Police also intervewed a 37-year-old man and released him without charge.

The arrests followed on from an incident on the morning of Sunday 26 March 2023, where 45-year-old Port Melbourne man Daniel Cockerill was dropped off at Casey Hospital with a stab wound to his upper body.

He was treated at the scene but passed away a short time later.
