Woman heard ‘horror movie’ screams before student’s death
PHILADELPHIA — A neighbour of a man charged with killing a Temple University student says she heard screams that reminded her of a horror movie the night the woman disappeared.
Noelle Sterling testified at a preliminary hearing Wednesday that she called police in the early morning hours of Aug. 31 after hearing banging noises in her north Philadelphia apartment building, Philly.com reports .
Temple police spoke to her but soon left, she said. A short while later, she heard shrieks.
“I don’t think I got to sleep before the screaming started,” she said.
