BAKER, La. (AP) — East Baton Rouge Parish sheriff's deputies arrested a Baker woman in the stabbing death of her brother.

Sheriff's office spokeswoman Casey Rayborn Hicks says deputies were called at 12:18 a.m. Christmas Day to an apartment where they discovered 22-year-old Dominque Lathers had been stabbed in the neck.

Hicks says Lathers was taken to a local hospital and later pronounced dead.

She says 18-year-old Tomeka Lathers was booked with manslaughter.

It was unclear whether Tomeka Lathers has an attorney.
