New York City police want to question the ex-boyfriend of a woman stabbed to death at a Queens apartment.
Witnesses say Ebony Garcia, 21, screamed for help for more than a half hour before neighbors called the police. Police found her lying in a pool of blood at about 2:10 a.m Saturday. She was stabbed about a dozen times and died two hours later at a local hospital.
One neighbor said she ignored the cries because she thought the victim had been drinking.
Police say Garcia, the mother of a 2-year-old girl, broke up with her boyfriend earlier this month and had obtained a restraining order against him. But she had called a cousin Friday night and said he was in the apartment.
