Police have charged a 15-year-old Brisbane boy with murder after a 58-year-old Clayfield man was found dead at a house party on 26 June.
Emergency services were called to an Oriel Road address around 8:15pm following reports of a man sustaining critical injuries.
Detective Acting Superintendent Craig Williams said, “We can confirm that he is deceased as a result of what appears to be a stab wound.”
“This is a tragic incident that will affect the family, the community as a whole, and other young persons who were at the house at the time… who are assisting us with inquiries and were not involved in the situation at all.”
Upon arrival, it will be alleged that officers found a large group of teenagers, as well as a 15-year-old Clayfield boy nearby, and took him into custody.
The man who died has been named in media reports as Universal Store co-founder and Noosa Reef Hotel owner, Greg Josephson.
Greg Josephson reportedly paid $13.9m under the hammer for the two-storey Noosa Reef Hotel in 2021.
It will be alleged the pair were known to each other.
Following investigations, detectives have since charged the 15-year-old Clayfield boy with one count of murder – domestic violence offence.
He was refused police bail and appeared in Brisbane Childrens Court on 27 June.
Investigators are appealing to anyone who may have information that could assist, or who may have CCTV or dashcam footage from the area, to come forward.
