Overview
- Police found 39-year-old Julia Anderson shot next to her Jeep in the Wakefield section of the Bronx late on Monday and she was pronounced dead at Jacobi Hospital.
- Authorities arrested 58-year-old Michael Foster late Wednesday and charged him with murder, manslaughter and ten counts of criminal possession of a weapon.
- Officials say the killing appears tied to an ongoing dispute over who would inherit a house shared by Foster and Anderson in Mount Vernon.
- NYPD crime-scene investigators searched an 18 Bell Avenue address linked to the pair and carried out items of evidence after early reports that a shooter fled the scene on a moped.
- State records and reporting show Foster served time for a 1988 manslaughter conviction, a fact that prosecutors may weigh as the investigation and pretrial work continue.
