A 34-year-old woman was stabbed to death in her Queens apartment early Tuesday — and her husband, who investigators believe may be connected to her slaying, was found hours later hanged inside a nearby park, police said.
Cops responding to a 12:24 a.m. 911 call for an assault found the woman stabbed dead inside her home on 41st St. near 19th Ave. in Astoria. The victim’s 34-year-old husband was quickly identified by police as a person of interest.
About six hours later, the husband was found hanged in an apparent suicide two miles away in Astoria Park near Astoria Park South and Shore Blvd., police said.
Cops have never been called to the victim’s apartment before, NYPD officials said.
