Queensland Police are calling for the assistance of Springfield Lakes residents regarding their investigation of a homicide that took place on Saturday, February 3.

Detectives from the Ipswich Homicide Investigation Unit, who are investigating the homicide of a 70-year-old woman at Redbank Plains, have established four persons of interest in relation to the case.

The four people were captured on video (available here) travelling in and leaving a vehicle of interest that parked along Bruny Street, Springfield Lakes.

Investigators believe the four people depicted in the vision, captured from a Bruny Street, Springfield Lakes address on Saturday evening, may be able to assist them with their enquiries.

Those with relevant vision, including CCTV and dashcam footage, are also asked to come forward.
