Two squatters, who fled to Pennsylvania, are being sought in the murder of a woman who walked in on them living inside her recently deceased mother’s New York City apartment, according to investigators.
Nadia Vitel arrived in the country to prepare the apartment for a family friend. It was owned by her mother and had been vacant for three to four months since her death.
Instead, she discovered a man and a woman living inside.
A struggle ensued and Vitel appears to have been thrown into a sheetrock wall, which was later discovered dented and broken.
She sustained blunt-force trauma to the head, multiple facial fractures and two broken ribs.
The suspects stole her Lexus and fled across the George Washington Bridge through New Jersey to Pennsylvania, where they crashed in Lower Paxton Township, just outside Harrisburg.
Unfortunately, police in Pennsylvania did not run the license plate until the day after the crash, allowing the two to get away.
Detectives are now hot on their trail and have recovered surveillance video of the two visiting multiple car dealerships, attempting to buy a new car for $1,000. They were not successful.
