OKC Woman Facing Murder Charge After Stabbing Victim Dies

An Oklahoma City woman was arrested in connection to the stabbing death of another woman in southwest Oklahoma City, Wednesday night.

According to police, at about 9:40 p.m. officers responded to the report of a stabbing in the 5700 block of S. Agnew. The victim, 50-year-old Malinda Brown, was found to be critically injured.

Investigators said they were able to determine that the victim and the suspect, 49-year-old Zelder Yvonne Williams, had an altercation, which led to Brown being stabbed.   

Brown was transported to an area hospital where she died Thursday morning as a result of her injuries.

Williams was arrested Wednesday night and booked into the Oklahoma County Jail on a complaint of assault with a deadly weapon.  Investigators will be amending the booking complaint to reflect a charge of first-degree murder. A bond has not been set. 

Brown's death is Oklahoma City's 21st homicide of 2016, according to police.
