Frankston man on murder charge Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON man Alex Manuel has been arrested and charged with murder following a manhunt that lasted over two weeks. Police allege that 44-year-old Bon-
beach man Ricky Thompson and 27-year-old New Zealand national Alex Manuel had a verbal altercation at around 3.30am on 18 June outside the Chelsea Heights Hotel. Police allege that Mr Thompson was stabbed, leaving him with serious injuries. Mr Thompson was taken to hospital,
but died on 19 June. Manuel was arrested by homicide squad detectives with the assistance of the special operations group at a rural property in Toora, Gippsland on 4 July. A man and woman at the Toora property were “assisting police with their inquiries”.
Mr Manuel faced the Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on one count of murder on 4 July. Police had been looking for Manuel for over two weeks. Detective Inspector Andrew Stamper said before Manuel’s arrest that police believed he was likely staying with an associate.

“We think Manuel has gone to ground and I would strongly reiterate that if he is being harboured by someone, then that person risks committing a serious offence as well,” he said. Police believe the parties involved in the alleged incident were known to each other.
