Doctor, Wife Stabbed Multiple Times While Sleeping in Pennsylvania Home, Police Say
Police say the suspect entered the home while the couple slept and was later found nearby with cuts to his hand.
- On Thursday shortly after 12:30 a.m., Dr. Idris Evans was killed and his wife critically injured in their Edgewood home; police apprehended suspect 32-year-old Elijah Hemingway shortly after the stabbing.
- Allegheny County Police allege Hemingway entered the home through a back window and attacked the couple while they slept, though their two children were home and escaped unharmed.
- Evans' wife told authorities she did not know Hemingway, though she remembered her husband addressing the attacker as "Elijah"; Hemingway claimed Evans invited him, but authorities found no evidence supporting his account.
- Hemingway faces charges including homicide, aggravated assault, and burglary; neighbor Sandra Trappen described the police response as intense, saying, "If you see one or two police officers, it's a lot, let alone if you wake up and find 20."
- UPMC officials expressed deep sadness over Dr. Idris Evans, a pediatric critical care physician at UPMC Children's Hospital, describing him as a "dedicated caregiver." Anyone with information should call the County Police Tip Line at 1-833-ALL-TIPS.
