   The suspect nabbed in the stabbing murder of a jogger in   
   Washington, DC, is a 23-year-old resident of the capital with a   
   criminal past, police officials said Thursday.   
      
   Anthony Crawford was charged with first-degree murder in the   
   death of Wendy Martinez, an avid runner who was engaged to be   
   married just last week.   
      
   DC Police Chief Peter Newsham said Crawford, who lives in the   
   northwest area of the city, was picked up Wednesday night at a   
   park at 14th Street NW and Girard Street NW — about a mile and a   
   half away from the attack.   
      
   “The suspect did not cooperate with us,” Newsham said. “We don’t   
   have anything that suggests a confrontation between the two. It   
   looks like it was an unprovoked attack.”   
      
   Crawford allegedly plunged a knife into Martinez as she jogged   
   westbound on P Street NW at 11th Street around 8 p.m. Tuesday.   
      
   Graphic surveillance video shows the 35-year-old tech employee   
   stumbling into a nearby Chinese restaurant, bleeding from the   
   neck and begging patrons for help. Customers, including a nurse,   
   tried to save her — but Martinez died of her injuries at a local   
   hospital.   
      
   “Thankfully, there were some folks in the carryout who really   
   went above and beyond to try to help her before police and fire   
   could arrive on scene, but unfortunately, they couldn’t save her   
   life,” said Newsham.   
      
   Martinez did not know her attacker before she was murdered and   
   there were no signs of an attempted robbery, he said.   
      
   “We don’t have a motive in this case,” Newsham said, adding that   
   investigators are examining Crawford’s criminal record for any   
   clues.   
      
   Crawford was treated at the hospital for an injury on his hand.   
      
   Tips that poured in after police released images of the suspect   
   — wearing a distinctive T-shirt, sweatpants, white socks and   
   sandals — were key to making an arrest in the case, Newsham said.   
      
   He added that the slaying was rare for the city, let alone a   
   neighborhood as safe as Logan Circle.   
      
   “This is a very isolated instance,” he said. “You don’t see   
   crimes like this, even in the course of my career.”
