A Camp Springs woman died after her ex-boyfriend stabbed her multiple times inside her apartment Monday morning.
Around 8:30 a.m., Prince George’s County police and fire/EMS departments responded to the Andrews Manor apartment complex in the 5200 block of Morris Drive for a reported person stabbed.
Police and medics found Kateisha Jenkins, 33, suffering from multiple stab wounds. She was transported to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead.
According to police officials, Jenkins’ ex-boyfriend showed up at the apartment where she lives with his child. He allegedly confronted Jenkins at the front door and stabbed her multiple times before fleeing from the scene.
Jenkins’ brother was inside the apartment at the time of the incident and tried to intervene. He also was stabbed and was transported to a local hospital for minor stab wounds.
A short time later, due to tips from area residents and family members, Jenkins’ ex-boyfriend — identified as Keith Warren Henry, 33, of Washington, D.C. — was located in the 6600 block of Harley Lane in Temples Hills.
Henry was arrested by Prince George’s County Police officers, said Cpl. Larry Johnson, PGPD spokesman. He was charged with first- and second-degree murder and was taken to the Department of Corrections in Upper Marlboro on a no-bond status.
This is the 21st homicide of 2013 in the county. There were 12 homicides by this time last year.
