Lezsak’s children, a boy and a girl, were reportedly there at the time of the alleged attack with one of the youngsters valiantly intervening. The girl suffered cuts to her arm and was taken to hospital in a stable condition. Sven Lindemann, 52, a German-born bodybuilder, was arrested at the scene and remains under police guard in hospital. The schoolgirl has since been discharged and was hailed as a hero by the slain mother’s heartbroken friends. Jacqueline Schwarcz told local media: “She’s definitely a hero in all our eyes. “She’s physically good but obviously as family we’re just going to surround her and support her through this because this is not something that we know how to navigate.” The woman spoke highly of Lezsak, who claimed she was a loving mother. She said: “Most importantly, she was the best mum. “She was so kind, she lived for her kids. “Every single day, it was just about her kids and she made sure she gave them experience and fun.” Jade Roberts, another pal, told The Age that Lezsak had a bright future ahead of herself after starting her own beauty product line. Jade said: “She was an elite athlete who trained rain, hail or shine and nothing would get in the way of her gym session. “I really took inspiration from her commitment to her passion.” Cops said Lindemann was in hospital with life threatening upper body injuries. The Victorian homicide squad is investigating and said the 52-year-old man was the alleged suspect. Lindemann, from Adelaide, is a self-confessed “gym junkie” according to his social media. The man is also a father to two children of his own and had been dating Lezsak for several months before she was killed, it was reported. Lezsak’s death came just days after Lindemann reportedly took to Instagram and posted: “Don’t forget that you are going to die… and you don’t know when.” The Instagram message about death was on a list of “10 bitter truths” posted by Lindemann. Lezsak and Lindemann were understood to be in a relationship. In April, Lezsak posted on social media about spending time with Lindemann, writing “Weekend away with you”. Anyone with information or CCTV of the incident is urged to contact police. HOW YOU CAN GET HELP: Women's Aid has this advice for victims and their families: Always keep your phone nearby.
