A 38-year-old man has been arrested in the stabbing death of a 32-year-old Queens woman inside her home earlier this week, police said.

Cops responded to a call about an assault at 32-48 55th St. in Woodside on Tuesday when they discovered the victim, Katherine Seeber, with multiple stab wounds to her torso. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Pedro Sanchez, who is homeless, has been charged with second-degree murder, criminal possession of a weapon, tampering with evidence and resisting arrest, police said.

Sanchez and the victim were in a relationship and he grew outraged when he learned she was seeing someone else, The Daily News reports.

Seeber herself had served more than a decade in prison for the murder of her step-great-grandmother, 91, in 2000 in upstate New York, the News reports.
