Local News in Brief : Woman Stabbed to Death
Repeated stabbing apparently caused the death of a middle-aged woman whose skeletal remains were discovered while workmen were renovating a house in Venice last month, authorities said Thursday.
Los Angeles homicide detectives said the unidentified woman was buried in the backyard of the home for more than two years. They also revealed that several people who once rented the small, single-family house on Nowita Place are possible suspects in the case.
“There were several occupants of the house during the past 15 years and we are running all of the names (through a law enforcement computer),” Police Lt. Ross Moen said. “They’re all being investigated.”
