More details have been released after a woman was
found apparently stabbed to death and her fiance
was found nearby splashed with blood Wednesday
night at a home in Fort Bend County. Authorities have released more details in what they say was the apparent stabbing death of a a 52- year-old woman whose fiance was found nearby splashed with blood on Wednesday night at a home in Fort Bend County.
Osa Alohaneke, 56, faces a murder charge in the
woman's death at about 7 p.m. in the 16300 block
of Alametos Drive in the Mission Bend area,
according to the Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies said they found the female victim
identified as Evelyne Ebane Epiepang, dead inside the house and her sister injured.
Alohaneke was standing nearby with blood on his
clothes, according to a news release. He told
investigators that Epiepang was his fiancee and
they lived at the house. Another man, a family
friend, at the home was not hurt.
Epiepang's sister was taken to Memorial-Hermann
Hospital-Katy. She had a puncture wound in her
shoulder and a broken arm. Her condition was not
released, but deputies said her injuries were non-
life-threatening.
Deputies said they were first dispatched about 5
p.m. on a domestic violence emergency call from
Epiepang. When deputies arrived at the house,
Alohaneke had already left. About two hours later, Alohaneke reportedly returned to the home and banged on the front door, but the two women were not home. A man in the house phoned the victim, and she and her sister returned. Deputies say the alleged fatal attack occurred after their return.
Alohaneke is in the Fort Bend County jail and is
being held for the Bureau of Immigration and
Customs Enforcement.
