LEMON GROVE (CNS) - A woman died and a man was injured during a domestic disturbance at a residence in Lemon Grove, authorities said Saturday.
The incident happened at about 7:30 p.m. Friday at a residence in the 2200 block of Dain Court, according to Lt. Thomas Seiver of the San Diego County Sheriff's Department.
A man and woman were reportedly arguing and when deputies arrived, they heard screaming inside the residence and forced entry when nobody answered the door, Seiver said. Inside, deputies found a man and a woman who were stabbed.
Authorities identified the couple as 30-year-old Rhona Barcelon and 31-year-old Jay Barcelon. Based on the investigation, homicide detectives believe Jay stabbed Rhona while inside their home. Jay also sustained injuries during the altercation.
Both were taken to a hospital, the lieutenant said, but Rhona was pronounced dead shortly after arrival. Jay underwent surgery and was expected to survive.
The sheriff's homicide unit is investigating.
A GoFundMe has been started for Rhona's memorial.
