On June 10, around 9 p.m., police responded to a call of a man in need of help at 23-81 32 St., according to the NYPD.
When the police and EMS personnel arrived, they were met by a combative 80-year-old man and found Anastasia Paterekas, of 43rd Street, unconscious and unresponsive inside the home, cops said.
The man was taken to NYC Health & Hospitals/Elmhurst for treatment and evaluation. Paterekas was pronounced dead at the scene.
