Woman Found With Throat Slashed In Kensington
By Dan Wing
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Philadelphia Police are investigating after a woman is found on a street in Kensington with a slashed throat.
The victim was found laying on Frankford Avenue near East Cambria Street by two women, who called police around 3 a.m.
Officers transported the woman to Temple University Hospital, where she is listed in critical condition.
Chief Inspector Scott Small says she had a 12-inch cut across her throat.
"She was unable to speak because of this injury. She had no identification on her so she is a Jane Doe right now."
Small says investigators are hoping surveillance video from businesses in the area will provide some clues to help them find the person responsible.
