Queens immigrant in her 50s fatally stabbed in her Flushing apartment, NYPD says
A woman was found fatally stabbed in the bedroom of her Queens apartment Saturday, police said.
Cops called to the fifth-floor apartment on 41st Road near College Point Blvd. in Flushing found the victim, who is believed to be in her 50s, just before 7 a.m.
The woman was knifed multiple times and was lying in a pool of blood beneath her bed, police sources said.
She died at the scene. Cops were trying to identify her Friday.
Neighbors said the victim went by ‘Vivi’ and had only lived in the building for two or three years after immigrating from Hubei province in China.
“Yesterday [Thursday] I called, and she came to see me,” said one stunned neighbor who did not share her name. “There was no problem.”
The victim’s death was not immediately ruled a homicide but cops said it appeared suspicious.
No arrest in the case was reported as of Friday evening.
