BREAKING: RIVERSIDE: Woman killed during domestic disturbance, man arrested

RIVERSIDE – A man has been arrested after he allegedly stabbed a woman to death during a domestic dispute Sunday, Nov. 20. The incident happened at the Springbrook Park Apartments in the 1100 block of N. Orange Street, in the City of Riverside. The apartments are located directly across the street from the Northside Fire Station 6.

When officers arrived at the residence they found a male and female lying on the floor. Both were suffering from stab wounds. It has not yet been released how the two subjects are related or if they were involved in a relationship.
