A Pennsylvania woman was stabbed to death by a man she met on Facebook when she tried to buy a refrigerator for her boyfriend, authorities said.
Denise Williams, 54, suffered a ‘violent death’ on Monday when she went to look at the device that was offered for sale on a Facebook market by a Geistown man, according to Jeff Lees, Coroner of Corria.
“She was having a fight,” Lees said at a news conference Wednesday. “It was a violent death she suffered.”

Williams, who worked at a local hospital, was reported missing by her family Monday night.
