Johannesburg - A 23-year-old man was stabbed to death in Mgomanzi near Butterworth, Eastern Cape police said on Sunday.
Captain Lingisile Magama said the man was arguing with a relative over a woman on Saturday night.
The two were outside the woman's home when the victim was killed. "The suspect, who is 22-years-old, stabbed him with a sharp object. He died on the scene."
Magama said the two men were dating the same woman, who was later found hanging from a roof in her home on Sunday morning.
"I suspect she killed herself because of what had happened earlier," he said.
Police were investigating a murder and had opened an inquest docket. The stabbing suspect was still at large.
