A Bronx woman was stabbed to death in a car when her husband pulled over to relieve himself and two moped-riding muggers ambushed her late Wednesday, cops and sources said.
Anthonella Contreras Linarez, 30, and her 44-year-old beau were on their way to dine with a friend on City Island around 8:10 p.m. when the couple pulled over just outside Rodman’s Neck allegedly because the husband had to urinate, law enforcement sources said.
As the husband turned did his business in the bushes near Park Drive and City Island Road, two strangers pulled up on a moped and demanded money from his wife, he later told authorities, according to the sources.
When Contreras Linarez refused, the man riding on the back of the moped knifed her multiple times on her face, neck and body, the sources said.
Her husband later told cops that he rushed back to the car when he realized what was going and the same knifeman slashed him multiple times on his right arm, according to the sources.
The injured husband said he got back behind the wheel and drove to Montefiore Hospital in New Rochelle, where Contreras Linarez succumbed to her injuries, cops and sources said.
Her husband was listed in stable condition and has since been released from the hospital.
The moped-riding suspects fled the scene after the attack and had not been caught by Thursday, cops said.
