Woman stabbed to death inside Stow home; suspect in custody

STOW, Ohio — A 32-year-old woman was found dead late Wednesday inside a home after police say they received a call from a man who said he had stabbed a family member.

John Lorkowski, 46, of Stow, was taken into custody without incident after officers arrived at the home on the 4000 block of Baird Road shortly after 10:30 p.m., police say. Lorkowski is being held in the Summit County Jail on a charge of murder, police say.

A news release from police says dispatchers received two 911 calls at 10:31 p.m. reporting the stabbing. One of the callers told dispatchers he had stabbed a family member during an “altercation,” police say.

The victim, whose identity has not been released, was found dead in the home with “numerous” stab wounds. Police did not say how the victim is related to the suspect. Lorkowski was taken to Akron General Hospital in Stow for treatment to cuts on his hand before being taken to jail.

The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation and the Summit County Medical Examiner’s Office are assisting with the investigation, police say.
