Police took one man into custody.

Neighbors say the woman was living in the home with her brother and another man who constantly argued with her.

"They wanted the cops to either throw him out or he wanted police to throw her out. It was always back and forth, the cops were always being called because they were arguing back and forth, but I didn't think nothing like this would happen," said a neighbor.

Police continue to investigate. The names of the victim and the man in custody have not been released.
