Police said Ebony Patrice Taylor was killed shortly before 2 a.m. in what is being described as a domestic dispute. Authorities did not immediately name a suspect.
When officers arrived at the 5700 block of Lambrook Court, they found Taylor suffering from multiple stab wounds inside a home. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Officers were given a possible address in the Freedom Division to which a male suspect may have fled. He was arrested there a short time later in the 5400 block of Windy Valley Drive, near Rozzelles Ferry Road.
A neighbor told WSOC-TV that he heard Taylor and a man involved in a loud argument shortly before the stabbing. That man said he heard Taylor scream during the dispute.
Mecklenburg County jail records show that Taylor was arrested Saturday on misdemeanor assault charges. It is unclear if that arrest was related in any way to the violence overnight.
