Woman Followed and Fatally Stabbed in Her Chinatown Apartment
The New York Times
The 25-year-old suspect, who the police said was arrested as he tried to escape from a back window, had a record of misdemeanor arrests.
A 35-year-old woman was stabbed to death inside her Lower Manhattan apartment early Sunday by a man who had followed her down the street and into her building, the police said.
The woman, whose identity has not yet been released but who the police said was Asian, is seen in 30-second surveillance video walking down Chrystie Street in Chinatown as the man follows closely behind.
In the video, obtained by The New York Post, she enters her apartment building just before 4:30 a.m. As she walks down the building hallway and moves out of frame, the man, identified by the police as Assamad Nash, 25, is still trailing her.
