Three people have been arrested on suspicion of murder after a man was fatally stabbed.

Police said they believed the victim, a man aged in his 30s, was attacked in an alleyway. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Two men, aged 44 and 39, and a woman, 31, were in custody for questioning, Suffolk Police said.

Supt Kerry Cutler, policing commander for Ipswich, said: "We do not believe this to have been a random attack."
