PITTSBURG (CBS SF) - A 27-year-old woman was killed Wednesday night in Pittsburg in what appears to be a stabbing, a Pittsburg police lieutenant said.
Officers arrived to the 100 block of Viking Way around 9 p.m. on a call about a non-responsive female, Pittsburg police Lt. Ron Raman said. A woman was found there with no vital signs.
Fire paramedics tried to revive the woman who was suffering from stab wounds. She was pronounced dead at the scene, Raman said.
