Authorities: Acquaintance fatally stabbed woman

BELLEVILLE, Ill. — Authorities allege that an acquaintance fatally stabbed a southwestern Illinois woman in the face and neck during a confrontation.

Prosecutors in St. Clair County on Sunday charged 37-year-old Kristofer McDavid with first-degree murder in the death of 50-year-old Carmen Boyd. He's jailed on $5 million bond.

Boyd's landlord found her body Friday in her apartment in Swansea, just east of St. Louis. McDavid was arrested Saturday.
