A Corio man, 36, has been charged with murder and will face Geelong Magistrates Court on Monday.

It comes as a 24-year-old was charged on Friday night over the death of a homeless man in South Melbourne last month.

The Tarneit man was charged with murder after the 35-year-old victim was found with multiple wounds outside a Dorcas Street property on June 26.
