Somerville Officers found the woman with multiple apparent stab wounds. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

The woman's identity has not been released yet as authorities are awaiting on the Medical Examiner's Office report. The report will be able to positively identify the victim and determine the cause and manner of death.

Roman Jr. said he hopes to have the report on Friday.

Many residents in Somerset County are sharing their fears and concerns on social media community groups. Specifically, many have aired their concerns over a post made in a Somerville Community group claiming to be the stabbing suspect and that he would strike again.
