A 40-year-old South Side woman was expected to appear in court Tuesday after being charged with the fatal stabbing of a man Sunday night in the Grand Boulevard neighborhood in what authorities classified as a domestic incident.
The stabbing happened about 8:40 p.m. Sunday in the 4000 block of South Wabash Avenue, police News Affairs Officer Hector Alfaro said.
Rollins Stamps, 26, suffered multiple stab wounds to the leg and was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, police said. He was pronounced dead at 9:28 p.m., according to the Cook County Medical Examiner’s office.
An autopsy on Monday found that Stamps died of multiple stab wounds and his death was ruled a homicide, the medical examiner’s office said.
Latonya N. Morris, also of the 4000 block of South Wabash, was arrested soon afterward and charged with one count of first degree murder, according to police.
She was scheduled to appear for a bond hearing Tuesday.
