He was rushed to Einstein Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead at 9 p.m. Saturday, police said. That victim's identity was not released Sunday. Police reported no arrests or motive for the slaying.

A 19-year-old woman suffered a fatal stab wound to the neck about 11:50 p.m. Saturday inside a North Philadelphia home, police said. Officers found the victim inside the home on the 1100 block of West Rockland Street in the Logan section. She was pronounced dead about 1 a.m. Sunday at Einstein Medical Center, police said.

They did not release the woman's identity Sunday. No arrests were reported but police said the suspect was a female who knew the victim.
