HOMOCIDE detectives are investigating the death of a man who is believed to have complained to his neighbours about making too much noise late last night.

A 38-year-old man was found dead in the front yard of a house in Alamein Rd, Heidelberg West, in Melbourne's northeast about 11.50pm (AEDT).

Up to eight people may have been involved in an altercation that resulted in the man's death, Detective Leading Senior Constable Dale McQuarter said today...

Earlier last night police attended the house in response to a noise complaint from what is believed to have been another neighbour.

Sen Const McQuarter said between 12 and 20 people were there at the time, ranging in age from 12 to their mid-50s.

He said officers attended to the matter. A neighbour in Alamein Rd subsequently left his house to investigate the noise and an altercation broke out...

"It's a shocking thing to happen in any street."
