Cutler Bay woman repeatedly stabbed teen girl after spat over a cell phone: MDSO
A woman repeatedly stabbed a 15-year-old girl inside a Cutler Bay home Sunday afternoon after an argument over the teen’s cell phone, the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office said.
The girl was sleeping in the living room of the home at the 21000 block of Southwest 92nd Avenue around 3:20 p.m. when she awoke to see 26-year-old Lynn My Le looking through her phone, according to Le’s arrest report.
The girl, who was not named in the report, nor was her relationship with Le explained, confronted Le and asked her why she was going through her phone, detectives said.
The girl took the phone away, and Le responded by grabbing a “black knife,” the report states. The girl ran toward the front door, but detectives say Le caught up to her and stabbed her in the back about four times, causing her to collapse,
Le then stabbed the girl about six more times as the teen pleaded for her life, according to the report.
The girl survived, but the sheriff’s office said she was left with about 10 puncture wounds. Detective Samantha Choon told the Herald Monday that the teen is in “critical, but stable” condition.
The report noted that Le refused to speak with detectives. She was booked into Turner Guilford Correctional Center on one count of attempted murder. Her bond information was not immediately available, nor was information on her legal representation.
