A 35-year-old woman was fatally stabbed outside a bar in Kingsbridge.
Police identified the woman as Pamela Almonte Cabrea.
She was stabbed multiple times in the chest outside of Mama Dora Bar & Lounge just after 4 a.m. on Sunday.
An argument was captured by multiple surveillance cameras. The footage, obtained by News 12, shows a person wearing a yellow jacket in the middle of an argument. Video shows him swipe and stab someone before leaving on a scooter. Cabrea was seen being carried by her boyfriend before collapsing to the ground. The video matches the narrative from police sources. News 12 sources say the stabbing occurred after a fight broke out between two groups.
Cabrea was taken to BronxCare Health System first, then transported to NYC Health + Hospitals/Lincoln where she was pronounced dead.
News 12 spoke with the boyfriend. Through a translator, he said, "It happened so fast, I can't even explain it to you. She said he disrespected her... then it got out of control," he said.
A close friend of the victim was fighting back tears.
"She was a good person. I don't know why they did that to her. She was a good person," said Henry Paulino.
A growing memorial can be seen outside of El Flow Barber Shop on Briggs Avenue, where News 12 was told Cabrea worked. She was a manicurist.
Dozens of candles, bouquets of flowers and photos cover the walls outside of the shop.
"She didn't deserve this," one close friend said. "Why? Why would you take somebody's life away like that? You don't know who depends on her."
Cabrea leaves behind three children, two sons and one daughter.
No arrests have been made. Police say they believe the killer is a man and are looking for any information to help them find him.
