Police are searching for information about the vicious murder of a 21-year-old woman who was found naked this morning in a vacant lot in Northern Liberties.
Sabina Rose O'Donell, who lived with her stepfather on the 1200 block of N. 4th Street, was found by a neighbor walking a dog shortly before 10 a.m., said Philadelphia Capt. Jim Clark. No official cause of death has been determined, but there were signs of blunt force trauma to her face and body, Clark said. She apparently also was strangled.
Her body was in a vacant lot off North Orianna Street, behind the building where she lived, with items from her purse strewn around nearby.
O'Donell, who worked at a nearby restaurant, was out with friends at two bars on 2nd Street in Northern Liberties last night, Clark said. Around 10 p.m. she went to her friend's apartment, near Front Street and Girard Avenue. She was last seen around midnight when she asked to borrow her friend's bicycle and pedaled home, a distance of a few blocks.
Police believe her attacker was a stranger who approached her as she tried to enter her home, and that he dragged her behind the building. Police are asking anyone who heard or saw anything to call the homicide division at 215-686-3334.
Stay vigilant and be smart friends and neighbors.

Abducted near front and girard? But i just read someone state:
"There is no reason, none, for Philly residents to carry a handgun all the time."
When front and girard was referenced in the recent PW article.

Mythaeus, keep bringing awareness and promote 2A rights.
I hope you end up getting involved with FOAC rep and or Protect the Second at some point.
I know you do things in your own way to show and teach people.
Be safe.

It happened right outside her house, on Girard, but 4 blocks from Front. Not that it matters. That whole stretch is the border where a lot of things have happened lately. A few weeks ago, some guy brandished a gun and tried to rob a couple near Front & Girard. The girl sprayed him with pepper spray and managed to got away. danp almost got robbed in the same area (in the article).

ANYTIME ANYWHERE. Crime happens in huge congested cities and in rural farm communities where your nearest neighbor is a zip-code away. Prayers sent for the victims family.

This POS wanted her bike. Mind you, he was riding a bike at the time.
