<Reporter> In
a residential area in Seongjeong-dong, Cheonan, a man rushes out of the building.
After a while, a police car arrives at the building, followed by the 119 ambulance.
Last night around 9 o'clock, 27-year-old person A stabbed her ex-girlfriend, 27-year-old B, and ran away.
The crime was committed even when the victim's mother was present.
Person A is known to have committed a crime by taking her ex-girlfriend B to talk in the bathroom because she has a mother, then locking the door.
When the victim's mother, who was outside the bathroom, knocked on the door, A ran away, and B was taken to the hospital immediately, but died during treatment.
A was found in his officetel 1km away from the crime scene within 4 hours of reporting it.
The police forcefully opened the officetel door and caught the man inside.
As a result of the police investigation, A met with the victim B in October of last year, and it is known that they frequently quarreled over money issues such as living expenses.
The police explained that Mr. A, who broke up after three months of meeting, went to his ex to ask him to meet again, and when he was rejected, he stated that he committed the crime.
The police plan to apply for an arrest warrant for A on the charge of murder after further investigation.
