Authorities are investigating the stabbing of a 18-year-old woman in a parking lot outside SEPTA's Meadowbrook Station on July 27, 2020.

Abington police have a suspect in custody after a young woman was stabbed to death Monday morning in a parking lot outside SEPTA's Meadowbrook Regional Rail station, officials said.

The incident occurred around 8:30 a.m. in the lot off Lindsay Lane, where the 18-year-old victim was found dead in the lot next to her vehicle, according to authorities.

Investigators described the victim's death as a domestic incident. A male suspect was taken into custody in Northeast Philadelphia.

There were no other individuals involved and no SEPTA customers were in danger, an official said.

An investigation at the scene remains ongoing with the Abington Police Department, Montgomery County Detectives and SEPTA police.

Due to the investigation, service on SEPTA's West Trenton Line has temporarily been suspended between Jenkintown and West Trenton.


Correction: An earlier version of this story noted the victim's age as 19. Abington Township Police have since confirmed the victim was 18 years old.
