PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- A woman is facing charges after allegedly fatally stabbing a man in Mt. Washington early Sunday morning.

Police were notified of a man bleeding on the ground on Bailey Avenue at around 3:20 a.m.

The 33-year-old victim was taken to UPMC Mercy Hospital, where he later died.

The Allegheny County Medical Examiner's Office has identified the victim as Ryan Stephen Carosi, 33, of Pittsburgh.

Early Monday morning, authorities filed charges in the case. The suspect is Ashley Henchell, 25, of Pittsburgh. She is charged with criminal homicide.

According to police, the stabbing originated from an incident in Satalio's Bar.

"We're not saying that that bar is a problem bar by any stretch of the imagination," Pittsburgh Police spokesperson Sonya Toler said. "It just so happens that this instance started with an argument inside of that bar, and it went into the street where a man became a victim of a terrible crime."
