A horrific crime unfolded in a Bronx apartment building, where a young woman was discovered covered in torture wounds and later succumbed to her injuries in the hospital. Authorities are now on the lookout for her boyfriend, who is considered a person of interest in the case.
The 21-year-old victim was found with a multitude of injuries, including stab wounds, puncture wounds, razor marks, large lacerations, and other signs of being tied up and potentially beaten with a hammer. She was found on the staircase of the Fordham Heights building and rushed to BronxCare Health System, where she tragically passed away.
Surveillance cameras captured the victim’s boyfriend exiting the Bronx building, and he is currently evading authorities. Police are actively seeking him for questioning in connection with the brutal crime.
In a surprising turn of events, a 54-year-old woman believed to be the suspect’s mother was taken into custody after officers discovered a trail of blood leading to a room in her apartment. Initially considered a witness who found the injured woman, suspicions arose regarding her potential involvement in the heinous act.
The woman was found attempting to dispose of a garbage bag containing blood-soaked clothing and became uncooperative with investigators. This behavior could lead to evidence tampering charges, as police seek a search warrant for the apartment to gather more information.
The investigation into the tragic death of the young woman continues as authorities work tirelessly to bring justice to the victim and her family.
