Homicide detectives learned Compton Station deputies were dispatched to the location in response to a “Woman not Breathing” call.  When they arrived they found a 63-year-old Black woman lying on the ground and unresponsive.

Detectives discovered that a group of women were at a local park when a 67-year-old woman became annoyed with another woman arguing that she was too loud.  The argument quickly became physical with both punching each other and one being hit with a cane. 

Both women ended up on the ground where the altercation continued.  The 67-year-old suspect got up and walked away while the other complained she could not breathe.

The victim was transported to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead.  A 67-year-old Black female suspect was arrested and booked for Murder at Century Regional Detention Center where she is being held in lieu of a million dollar bail.

There is no further information available at this time.
