Pittsburgh police have arrested a woman in connection with a fatal stabbing Friday night.

The stabbing occurred around 7 p.m. in the Perry South neighborhood where police found Gerald Dwain Walker, 41, inside a home bleeding heavily from several stab wounds. He was transported to a local hospital, where he later died.

Tribune-Review news partner WPXI reported Saturday that Pittsburgh police arrested Maneca Pressley, 29, and charged her with criminal homicide.
