The victim of a homicide in Basel on Thursday is a 75-year-old resident, according to the public prosecutor's office. She was found dead in the afternoon in the stairwell of an apartment building in the Breite district.
The unknown perpetrators initially remained on the run after the incident, as the public prosecutor's office of the canton of Basel-Stadt announced on Friday night. How the woman was killed was also unclear for the time being.
A man had previously been reported to the police by a local resident who had been behaving suspiciously in the property. The police then cordoned off the area around the crime scene in the afternoon. The police set up a special task force to determine the exact course of events and the identity of the perpetrators. They were looking for witnesses.
