Lisa Marie Cummings had moved into the home owned by Mark Myers just a month before she allegedly murdered him and dumped his body in a surfboard bag 70 kilometres away.

Neighbors of the man found dead in a surfboard bag say they are shocked because he was allegedly killed by a woman who was renting a room in his home.

Lisa Marie Cummings, 35, had only moved in a month ago to share Mark Myers’ home in Nambucca Head in northern New South Wales, locals told Daily Mail Australia.

Her body was found abandoned 70 kilometres away in a surf bag in the driveway of a home in Darkwood, near Bellinger River National Park, on Thursday night.

Cummings was arrested for the alleged murder at his four-bedroom shared home on Friday and appeared in Coffs Harbour Local Court on Monday.

Neighbors on his street described the alleged victim as “an excellent neighbor” and “a good friend” who had lived in the nearby house since he bought it in 2010.

They said what allegedly happened was “unbelievable.”

Cummings was allegedly in a relationship with Mr. Myers, in addition to paying his rent, and police said they had a “domestic” relationship.
