A 29-year-old Warwick man was charged with Mr Ireland's murder on Thursday morning.
He will appear in Warwick Magistrates Court on Thursday afternoon.
Acting Detective Superintendent David Briese told ABC the two men were known to each other.
'They had spent part of the day together at the home, what their actual relationship is I don't know,' he said.
Det Supt Briese said an argument broke out between the pair before a 'physical altercation'.
'We will be alleging it was a long-bladed weapon that was used to inflict those injuries … it's something like a knife.'
