Girl, 15, Arrested in Stabbing Death of Woman
A 15-year-old girl was arrested Saturday in connection with the stabbing death of a woman in South Los Angeles, police said.
The victim, Annette Moore, 32, was stabbed repeatedly during a fight in front of an apartment building in the 4800 block of South Avalon Boulevard.
The fight broke out about 11:30 p.m. Friday after Moore got into an argument with a small group in front of the building.
Moore was taken to California Medical Center, where she died shortly after midnight.
The group involved in the altercation dispersed after the stabbing. Police arrested the 15-year-old girl at the apartment building Saturday morning and booked her on suspicion of murder.
The teen-ager, who was not identified because of her age, was taken to Eastlake Juvenile Hall.
Investigators did not release the reason for the argument and fight.
