A man has been arrested after the body of a woman was found in a driveway at a property in Sydney’s south overnight.
A NSW Police spokeswoman said officers were called to a unit complex on Cremona Road, Como, about 12.30am on Tuesday and made the grim discovery.
Police from the Sutherland Shire and homicide squad detectives have been called in to investigate the death, which has rocked the leafy and sleepy street.
The woman is yet to be formally identified but is believed to be 39 years old.
A 39-year-old man known to the woman was arrested at a home in Sylvania just after 9.30am on Tuesday.
A neighbour, Kathleen Mason, told reporters at the scene she heard a “high-pitched screaming and crying sound” similar to a noise an infant would make.
She described the victim as a “normal, average person”, noting local residents tended to keep to themselves and she knew very little about the victim.
“(But she seemed to be) a lovely quiet young woman. We’re all just really upset,” Ms Mason said.
“I’ve been out there (in the neighbourhood) speaking to people and we’re all just absolutely horrified. We can’t believe it’s happened.”
Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
Cremona Road has been blocked off and drivers have been urged to seek an alternative route.
