A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a woman was found stabbed in a car park on Sunday morning, Sussex police have said. Officers were called to a report of an altercation between a man and woman at about 7.10am on Station Way in Crawley, West Sussex. The area was searched and a woman was found in a nearby car park “with stab injuries”, the force said. She was treated by paramedics but was confirmed dead at the scene. Officers launched a wider search for a suspect and said they quickly located a 26-year-old man on Stephenson Road. The man, believed to be from Crawley, remains in custody. Supt Rachel Swinney said: “This is a tragic incident that has seen a young woman lose her life, and we are working hard to understand exactly what has happened. Officers were able to swiftly bring a suspect into custody and we are not currently searching for anyone else. “There will now be an increased police presence in what is a busy area of Crawley as we carry out our inquiries. I would urge anyone with any concerns to please speak to an officer at the scene.” The force asked witnesses or “anyone with information that could help” to contact police online or via 101, quoting Operation Venn.
