A 93-year-old was found dead in his North Philly home last week with stab wounds to his head and chest, police said. The man was identified Wednesday as Lafayette Dailey, and authorities are investigating his death as a homicide.
Police found Dailey unresponsive around 3 p.m. Friday at his home on the 4500 block of North 16th Street in the Logan neighborhood. Dailey's injuries raised suspicion of foul play, investigators said. No weapons were found at the scene.
