A WOMAN who died after a Dukinfield incident that sparked a murder investigation has been named as Alexis Karran.
The 49-year-old passed away in hospital as a result of injuries sustained at Winchester Road on Sunday (November 6).
And her family has now paid tribute to a ‘very caring’ person, who was ‘the best role model.’
They said: “Alexis is a very caring person. She shows kindness to all she meets – to all friends and strangers.
“She has always been the best role model for how to live life, that her brother constantly aspired to match.
“She is forever in our hearts – we will always be waiting to say hello.”
A 48-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder and has been detained under the mental health act.
And Detective Inspector Matthew Hamer, of Greater Manchester Police, said: “My deepest sympathies go out to Alexis’s family at this terrible time.
“Specialist officers have been deployed to support her family and they have asked for privacy while they grieve her loss.
“This is being treated as an isolated incident and we are not looking for anyone else in connection with her death.”
