“Officers located a female victim inside the building who had been stabbed,” police said in a message posted on X. “(The) victim has been pronounced deceased on scene.”

The assailant fled the scene and “remains outstanding at this time,” police added.

Homicide detectives have taken over the investigation and planned to update the media as new information develops.
