TWO men who dated the same woman ended up in a fight which left one stabbed to death and the other charged with murder.

Milo Manu Felix Wild was arrested at a Bondi unit early on Sunday morning where Jordan Byrne, 26, suffered horrendous wounds to his head and abdomen.

Wild, 27, originally from the Northern Territory, was questioned at Waverley Police station and has been charged with murder.

Milo Manu Felix Wild has been charged with murder over the stabbing of Jordan Byrne.

Mr Byrne was staying with his partner at her North Bondi unit, which she shares with Byrne’s former girlfriend.

It’s alleged Wild arrived at the unit with Mr Byrne’s ex before neighbours said that they heard a lengthy and loud argument between a man and a woman about 12.30am.

“I heard someone in the block yell out ‘shut up’ but the argument kept going,” a man who lives in the same complex said.

“It was incredibly loud, I thought someone would have rung triple-0.”

A woman is consoled outside the apartment block on Military Rd in North Bondi after the stabbing.

Police said Mr Byrne was stabbed in his abdomen and head before staggering out of the unit on Military Rd and into the hallway before collapsing.

Residents talk to police at the North Bondi apartment block where Jordan Byrne was stabbed.

One of the women from the apartment and neighbours desperately tried to stop the bleeding until paramedics arrived but there was little they could do to help the critically injured man.

The paramedics rushed Mr Byrne to St Vincent’s Hospital where he died during surgery a few hours later.

Wild was taken to Prince of Wales Hospital for treatment of minor facial injuries before being released a few hours later and arrested.

Detectives will reinterview the two women who live in the unit to try to firmly establish the relationship between all four people and a possible motive for the ­alleged attack.

“The two men were known to each other,’’ police said.

Officers would not elaborate, however, on how long the pair had known each other or what their relationship was.
