A man is speaking to police after a Perth grandmother was allegedly stabbed to death in her own home, with her 30-year-old daughter also rushed to hospital.
Family members found 60-year-old Julianne Egan dead and her 30-year-old daughter seriously injured about 11.20pm on Saturday in the Beckenham home.
The alleged attack triggered a police manhunt, with a 25-year-old man on bail arrested in the same suburb.

Detectives located Deng David Ker just a kilometre from where the grandmother's home in the city's south-east, after a 12-hour manhunt.
He had not been charged on Sunday night.
The daughter was stable at Royal Perth Hospital with stab wounds.
Neighbour John said he was alerted by another member of the family after the alleged attack.
Detective Senior Sergeant Keith Neubronner said detectives were trying to work out what happened.
"Both women we believe were assaulted with an edged weapon of some sort, we don't know what kind of weapon it was," Neubronner claimed.
"We have no idea what's actually occurred in the house, we know an altercation has occurred but the actual intricacies of it all we have no idea at this point in time."
