PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - A man is dead and a woman is in the hospital after an apparent home invasion in Pittsburgh's Knoxville neighborhood, Pittsburgh Public Safety said. 

The man, identified by the medical examiner as 52-year-old Victor Sawyer, was found stabbed to death inside a home on Zara Street after what police believe was a home invasion. 

The woman suffered significant injuries to her face and was taken to the hospital in stable condition. Police said her injuries were so severe she couldn't talk to officers.  

"She had some injuries to her jaw," Pittsburgh Public Information Officer Cara Cruz said. "It made it difficult for her to speak. Detectives will speak to her when she is able to."

The relationship between the man and woman is not known at this time. There was no word on suspects. Police's major crimes unit is investigating.
