SEATTLE (AP) - Police say a 38-year-old woman was stabbed to death in Seattle’s Wallingford neighborhood.
The Seattle Times reported Thursday that Lalita Byrnes was found dead in her home Monday by a friend who went to the residence.
Detectives are investigating the circumstances of her death, which the King County Medical Examiner’s Office has ruled a homicide caused by multiple sharp-force injuries.
The medical examiner says Byrnes died on Sunday.
Police said Friday afternoon that the homicide does not appear to be a random act. Police haven’t released suspect information or a motive.
Anyone with information is urged to contact the Seattle Police Department Homicide Tip Line at 206-233-5000.
