A 38-year-old man was stabbed to death by a woman he was fighting with on a Brooklyn street, police said Wednesday.
Terrence Smith got into a quarrel with his killer in front of a home with a dental practice on the first floor on Eastern Parkway near Utica Ave in Crown Heights about 11:05 p.m.
Tuesday, cops said.
As the argument turned physical, the woman pushed Smith to the ground, witnesses told police.
When he got back up she pulled a knife and stabbed him in the abdomen.
Dressed all in black and wearing a multi-colored bonnet, possibly a shower cap, she ran off east on Eastern Parkway and has not been caught.
Medics rushed Smith to Kings County Hospital but he could not be saved.
He lived less than a mile away in Brownsville, according to cops.
The murder weapon has not been recovered.
Through Sunday there have been 65 murders in the city this year, down 23% from the 84 slayings by the same time last year.
