A man has died and another has been injured in a stabbing.

Police were called to an address in Tasmania Close, Basingstoke, Hampshire, just before 21:00 BST on Sunday, where a man, in his 30s and from the town, was pronounced dead at the scene.

The other victim, a man in his 30s and from Newbury, Berkshire, suffered serious but not life-threatening injuries.

No arrests have been made, according to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary.

The force said it was believed the people involved in the incident were known to each other, with no wider risk to the general public.

It is appealing for witnesses and anyone with information to come forward.
