THE OFFICIAL grand opening of the luxurious Revel Casino this coming weekend has led many rooting for Atlantic City to imagine a bright future for the troubled resort town.
On Monday, they were forced to deal with a reminder of Atlantic City’s dreary recent past.
Two female Canadian tourists were stabbed multiple times Monday morning in the shadow of an Atlantic City casino and died in a trauma center a block away.
The Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office said Antoinette E. Pelzer, 44, of Pennsylvania, stabbed the two Canadian women, ages 47 and 80, at the intersection of Michigan and Pacific avenues, a busy section of the resort city near Bally’s Casino.
Both women were taken to AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center just a short walk from the scene, where they died Monday afternoon. Both had been stabbed multiple times in the upper body. Their names had not been released Monday night.
