The young woman died from multiple stab wounds, apparently from (a buck knife ). Lopez was killed while on the phone with the police, having just called 911 (to report a suspicious person ) who turned out to be her killer. The crime was particularly senseless because, according to the 911 tape, Lopez seemed to be giving her attacker the money at the time she was stabbed, (saying ) "You want it? I'll give it to you. I'll give it to you. I'm not going to do nothing to you. Please!!!" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carlos DeLuna」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
