Man found murdered in North Hills home

Police continue to investigate the death of a 36-year-old man who was found stabbed to death inside a North Hills home Tuesday night.

Los Angeles Police Department officers arrived at a residence at Lemona Avenue and Acre Street, near the Pacoima Wash, around 9 p.m. A caller reported seeing blood in the hallway of a home where several people live.

Arriving officers found a man suffering from multiple stab wounds in one of the bedrooms. He has been identified as Christopher Wilson and was pronounced dead at the scene.

One of the victim's roommates said he was his foster brother and shared Wilson's social media page. He added that the 36-year-old man was a father. 

The roommate said he called 911 after seeing a large man suddenly run out of the home's side door. He added that Wilson was just beginning to turn his life around in the past few months. After overcoming addiction, Wilson had just begun a new job as a dog groomer in Calabasas, according to his roommate.
