A woman has been charged with the murder of a 62-year-old man whose body was discovered in a surfboard bag at a property in the New South Wales north coast. The man’s body was found on the driveway of a property in Darkwood, about 67km southwest of Coffs Harbour, at 7pm on Thursday. A 35-year-old woman was arrested at a Nambucca Heads property on Friday and charged with murder. NSW Police will allege the incident was domestic violence-related, and the pair were known to each other.

Police have not determined the cause or time of death of the 62-year-old man, he said. “We are in contact with the family. Of course, they are distressed and upset at this time,” Nicholls said. “Police do ask that anyone with information about the circumstances of this death please contact Crime Stoppers or Mid North Police or Coffs-Clarence Police.” Gary Smith lives a few houses away from Nambucca Heads home. He said he would not have expected an alleged murder in the area.
