A man has died and another has been arrested after an alleged stabbing at a home in Sydney’s inner west on Sunday.

Emergency services were called to a property on Spring St in Concord about 12.10pm following reports of a welfare concern.

When officers from Burwood Police Area Command arrived, they found a man in his 30s suffering a stab wound to the chest.

NSW Ambulance paramedics treated the man at the scene, but he could not be revived and died a short time later.

A 41-year-old man was arrested at the home and taken to Burwood Police Station.

Superintendent Christine McDonald said the level of violence was “completely unnecessary”.

“This is a terrible incident, you go to someone’s house on a Sunday afternoon for whatever reason, and this occurs,” she said.

“It’s not something I’m sure the victim was expecting would happen, and now multiple lives have been ruined by this incident.”

She said there was an argument before the alleged stabbing.
