CHRISTMAS festivities have ended in tragedy for one family following the alleged murder of a 53-year-old father at a North Ipswich address.
Police allege a 33-year-old male stabbed to death the victim during an alcohol-fuelled late-night domestic dispute on Friday evening.
Detective Acting Inspector Heath McQueen said officers arrived to horror scenes at the Hall St residence at Brassall around 11.40pm.
"Police were confronted with a male person in the yard who had suffered significant wounds, they and subsequently provided CPR to that male person with QAS assistance," he said.
The two reportedly spent the day together at the address alongside several family members.
