WILLIAMSBURG, Brooklyn — The NYPD is thanking PIX11 for helping in the arrest of the suspected killer in a brutal ax attack that left one woman dead and another critically injured.
"I didn’t approach the conversation as if I was talking to a murderer," Ava Pittman, a PIX11 digital producer and assignment editor, said Sunday. "I just wanted to know what went on inside that apartment, apartment 8J."
Pittman reported the story of the gruesome New York murder on Saturday.
Savannah Rivera, 20, was partially decapitated and hacked to death with an ax early Saturday morning in the Bushwick Houses in Williamsburg.
