A West Side woman has been charged with first-degree murder after she allegedly stabbed her 77-year-old boyfriend because he was drinking her beer. Regina Williams, 55, was, according to police, sitting with her boyfriend, Willie Anderson, in his car. She became mad that Anderson was drinking her beer, pulled out the knife she carries, and began stabbing him.

Anderson yelled for help, but Williams continued to stab him, Assistant State's Atty. Susanne Groebner told Desierto. Afterward, Williams got out of the car and called down the street to Anderson's nephew, saying, "You better come get your uncleâ€”I just killed him," according to her arrest report. Groebner said Williams got back in the vehicle and finished drinking her beer.

Williams will be in court again at the end of the month. [Trib]
