Professor stabbed to death with stiletto heel in Houston
- authorities
HOUSTON, Texas (Reuters) - A woman stabbed her boyfriend to death
with a stiletto heel in his upscale Houston
condominium after a night of drinking, telling authorities she
killed him in self-defense, officials said on Monday.
Ana Trujillo, 44, is suspected of killing University of Houston
professor Stefan Andersson, whose body was found at his home early
on Sunday.
The couple had been out drinking and returned to the condominium
together at about 2 a.m., Harris County District Attorney
spokeswoman Sara Kinney said.
Trujillo, a resident of Houston, later called 911 and said she
was being assaulted, police said.
When police arrived just before 4 a.m. at the condo in the heart
of Houston's museum district, Trujillo answered the door and
officers saw Andersson, 59, lying on the floor, Houston Police
Department Spokesperson Jodi Silva said.
He had several stab wounds
to the head, which authorities said were inflicted by Trujillo's
spiked-heel shoe.
Trujillo is a Mexican citizen, according to court documents in a
2010 drunk driving case.
A native of Sweden, Andersson was a professor at the
university's Center for Nuclear Receptor and Cell Signaling,
specializing in women's reproductive health, according to a
statement from the university.
Before he joined the University of Houston in 2009, Andersson
had been an associate professor at the UT Southwestern Medical
Center at Dallas for 14 years, according to the social media
website LinkedIn. (Reporting By Karen Brooks; Editing by Tim Gaynor
