For the second time in a matter of days, a woman has been killed in a knife attack in Berlin. Police have arrested a 45-year-old suspect.

In Berlin, another woman was stabbed to death by a man with a knife. The 28-year-old was discovered with life-threatening injuries in the hallway of an apartment building in Berlin-Friedrichsfelde late Friday evening, the public prosecutor's office and police announced. Attempts to resuscitate her were reportedly unsuccessful, and the woman died shortly afterwards in a hospital.
