Woman Stabbed To Death In Hamilton Heights, Manhattan

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- Police are investigating a fatal stabbing that occurred in a Hamilton Heights apartment early Saturday morning.

Officers were called to 640 West 153 St. for reports of a dispute. Upon arrival, police discovered a 48-year-old female, unconscious and unresponsive, suffering from multiple stab wounds about her body.

Medics pronounced her dead at the scene.


Some in the building, like Abby Ramos, are grief stricken.

"She was a nice person," she said. "Decent, she was my friend."

Other friends of the victim say she lived in the apartment on West 153rd Street with her adult son and daughter.

As 1010 WINS' Roger Stern reports, this was the same building where in December 23-year-old Isaac Duran Infante confessed to killing 36-year-old Felicia Barahona and their 4-year-old son, Miguel.

No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.
