Montgomery County Woman Charged In Husband's Stabbing Death
CHELTENHAM TOWNSHIP, Pa. (CBS) -- A Montgomery County woman has been charged in the deadly stabbing of her husband and investigators say she admitted to the crime.
On November 22nd, at about 11:35 p.m., officers with the Cheltenham Township Police Department responded to 7414 Overhill Road for a reported disturbance.
When officers arrived on scene, they located 48-year-old Darryl Baker in a second floor bedroom suffering from a stab wound to his chest.
Baker was gasping for air and was unable to communicate with police. When officers asked Baker's wife, Ny Baker, what happened, investigators say she said "I stabbed him, I stabbed him."
