George Weber was found stabbed to death in his Brooklyn apartment Sunday morning, cops said. The bloody body of Weber, a passionate fan of the city who spent a decade doing local news on WABC morning radio, was found just after 9 a.m. when he didn't show up for work.
"I used to hear his voice in the top and the bottom of the hour. It's a voice New Yorkers know. Now that voice has been silenced," said Aaron Katersky, 33, an ABC colleague who found himself covering a friend's murder. Weber, 47, was freelancing at ABC's national radio network after being laid off last year.
George Weber, a reporter whose voice had been a steady presence on ABC radio for more than a dozen years, was found dead in his apartment in Brooklyn on Sunday, the police said. The death has been ruled a homicide. He had been stabbed, but no weapon was found, the police said. Cops believe Weber was killed Friday evening. He was found in bed with stab wounds in the neck and chest, cops said.
