Bond was denied on Saturday for a man charged with the fatal stabbing of a 28-year-old woman during a domestic fight in their South Shore apartment Wednesday night.
Howard Hunt, 58, faces one count of first-degree murder for the stabbing death of Joyce A. Terrell, according to police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
About 11:55 p.m. Wednesday, officers responding to a disturbance at the apartment in the 6800 block of South Jeffery found Terrell with a stab wound to the chest, authorities said.
Terrell, who lived in the South Side apartment with Hunt, was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where she was pronounced dead at 12:51 a.m. Thursday, police said.
A judge on Saturday ordered Hunt held without bond, according to the Cook County sheriff’s office. His next court date is Monday.
