That's when they say she pulled a knife on Coria, who defended himself with a stick until police arrived. Coria told NBC 5 that he defended himself with a nearby stick before police arrived at the scene.“The tow truck driver actually gave us a location and explained the person he was transporting actually pulled a knife, so officers responded to that scene and placed the suspect into custody,” Deenihan said.
Authorities said they found a head and severed limbs inside the freezer, which were determined to belong to Walker. Her torso, however, remains missing, prosecutors said. Kolalou, 36, also faces a felony charge of concealing a homicidal death, and a misdemeanor count of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon against a 24-year-old truck driver, court documents say.During the bond hearing Thursday, prosecutors alleged Kolalou had been given an eviction notice prior to the killing and was heard arguing with Walker by other tenants in the building.
In the hours that followed, tenants said they heard"scratching noises" in the home's common area. Then, some received perplexing text messages from Walker's phone, prosecutors said.
