A woman died from stabbing injuries last night in Brooklyn. The Anne Arundel County Police initially responded to a call about an injured or sick person at the intersection of Ritchie Highway and 4th Avenue shortly after 9 p.m., according to Fox Baltimore.
Upon arrival, police discovered the victim on the sidewalk with stab wounds. Despite receiving immediate treatment on the scene and being transported to Shock Trauma, she was pronounced dead from her injuries. Officers were unable to positively identify the woman initially, and the suspect had managed to quickly leave before they arrived. Witnesses described a verbal altercation between the woman and a man preceding the stabbing, indicating a possibility the attack was targeted, as reported by WBAL-TV.
