A woman is dead after a stabbing inside a Pittsburgh home.
Pittsburgh Public Safety said police were called to the fatal stabbing just before 7 p.m.
The authorities said they were called after a woman was found unresponsive inside her home by family members. She was handcuffed and had multiple stab wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene, officials said.
“There were family members who hadn’t heard from her for awhile who came to the house, and they were the ones who discovered her inside and called police,” Cara Cruz of Pittsburgh Public Safety said.
A neighbor who lives across the street said she heard screaming. She added that she saw family members coming from the backyard saying, “He stabbed her” and the victim’s father said, “He killed my daughter.”
The woman was a mother of two.
According to the criminal complaint, a witness told police the victim and her husband were in the process of getting a divorce.
The Pittsburgh Police Department has issued an arrest warrant for 50-year-old William L. Fitzgerald for the murder.
If you have any information on Fitzgerald, call 412-323-7800 or 911. Police are investigating.
