A woman allegedly stabbed a 59-year-old man to death with a stiletto heel early Sunday morning at a Museum District condominium high-rise.

At about 4 a.m. Houston police responded to an assault in progress call at Parklane on 1701 Hermann Drive, said HPD spokesman Kese Smith.

Ana Trujillo, a 44-year-old woman, opened the door for police, who found the man's body lying on the floor, Smith said.

Trujillo, whom police described as the man's guest, now faces murder charges. The victim's identity was not released.

Brian Wice, a criminal defense attorney and legal analyst, said he was shocked to learn that a man his age had died in the same luxury apartment unit he used to rent.

"It had a beautiful view and wonderful security," he said. "When I lived there, it was a lot of doctors, a lot of lawyers. Back in the day, at least one criminal district court judge and a sportscaster. It was a great place to live."

A University of Houston police car was also at the scene Sunday morning, but police would not elaborate on the reason.
