A 26-year-old Arlington man died Wednesday afternoon after he was allegedly stabbed by his girlfriend that morning.
Gary T. Hill was pronounced dead at Arlington Memorial Hospital at about 4 p.m., said Tiara Ellis Richard, Arlington police spokeswoman.
Police said that the girlfriend, Tonicita E. Henderson, drove Hill to the hospital at about 10 a.m. with a stab wound.
Henderson initially told police that her boyfriend was stabbed during an altercation with an unknown person at an apartment complex in the 1500 block of Summer Bay Circle.
She told police that she did not witness the altercation and that she arrived at the scene after Hill called her to take him to the hospital.
However, after further questioning by police, Henderson eventually confessed to stabbing Hill, Richard said.
Henderson is being held at the Arlington Jail on a charge of murder.
This is the first homicide in Arlington this year.
