A Harlem woman was arrested yesterday after fatally stabbing the father of her 2-year-old son on Halloween. Adele Louis stabbed Darryl Taylor inside her apartment Friday afternoon. Taylor had come over to pick up his son, dressed as Batman, and take him trick-or-treating when the altercation broke out. Apparently Louis was set off by Taylor not purchasing a winter coat for their son, Daryl Jr. Earlier in the day, Taylor's mother says that Louis had thrown bleach in Taylor's face over his not buying the coat, which prompted him to call the police. But Taylor's mother says that he did not press charges over the incident because he "did not want to see her locked up."
