A man has been charged with murder after another man died from his serious injuries at a home in Chelmsford.

Police were called by the ambulance service to an address in Nelson Grove in the city shortly after 4.30am on Monday.

Offices arrived to discover a man had been seriously injured.

He was treated by paramedics, but was pronounced dead at the scene.

A murder investigation was launched on Monday and that afternoon a man from Chelmsford was arrested on suspicion of murder.

Marek Hecko, of Rookes Crescent, has since been charged with murder.

The 25-year-old will appear at Colchester Magistrates' Court on Thursday.
