LAS VEGAS (AP) — Police in Las Vegas are searching for the boyfriend of a woman who was found stabbed to death in her home.

Authorities on Friday identified 54-year-old Michael Garcia as a person of interest in the homicide.

Investigators say police responded to a report of a body found in a home around 2:30 p.m.

They located a woman with multiple stab wounds and pronounced her dead at the scene.

Police say she had been dead for several days.

They are seeking Garcia, who they say was in a relationship with the victim at the time of her death.

The Clark County Coroner's Office will release the victim's identity as well as an official cause of death.
