Woman found dead inside SoHo apartment

(New York - WABC, September 5, 2007) (WABC) -- A young woman was found murdered Wednesday night inside her Manhattan apartment. She was discovered by her roomate. So who killed her and why?

Eyewitness News reporter Jim Dolan is in SoHo with the story.

Police spent most of Wednesday night outside the building here on Crosby Street, and upstairs in a 3rd floor apartment where they found the 36-year-old woman's body with two stab wounds to the chest.

On this trendy, hip SoHo street, neighbors can't believe it.

"This is practically unheard of," a resident told us.

No one in the neighborhood seems to know the victim who was reportedly staying with an ex-boyfriend after having issues with a more recent boyfriend.

Police are not saying if there is a suspect in this case but they say there was no sign of forced entry. They are confident she knew her killer and now they are trying to figure out who that was.
