A 41-year-old woman was found fatally stabbed at a Park Avenue rooming house shortly after midnight Tuesday following a disturbance involving several people.
The victim, Willesha Riddick of Bridgeport, was discovered unresponsive and bleeding at the front door of the home around 12:05 a.m., according to police.
She was taken by ambulance to St. Vincent’s Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead. Investigators later determined she had been stabbed multiple times.
A second woman suffered a minor stab wound during the incident. She was treated at Bridgeport Hospital and released.
