The boyfriend of a woman who was fatally stabbed early today in Carnegie has been charged in her death.
Jeffery Allen Maloy, 26, is awaiting arraignment on a homicide charge in the death of 36-year-old Melissa Bowers.
Carnegie police Chief Jeffrey Harbin said police were called to an apartment at 103 Railroad Ave. for a report of a stabbing at 4:30 a.m.
Mr. Maloy was standing outside the apartment. Inside, they found Ms. Bowers dead.
This morning, Chief Harbin would not elaborate on why he was a suspect, but said "when the police got there, there was a conversation that led to police taking him into custody."
Police later learned the attack was preceded by a fight.
