A Pittsburgh woman was found dead Thursday evening with multiple stab wounds in South Side Slopes.

Tarae C. Washington, 47, was found inside her Arlington Avenue residence Thursday, according to the Allegheny County Medical Examiner.

Public Safety spokeswoman Cara Cruz said officers were dispatched shortly before 7 p.m. to the 2100 block of Arlington Avenue for a woman discovered unresponsive by family members.

Cruz said police found Washington on the floor and she had been stabbed multiple times.

Police said her family, who had not seen Washington in some time, went to her house to check on her and found her and called 911.

No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.

Anyone with information about the incident should contact Pittsburgh police at 412-323-7800.
