A dazzling blonde former Hunter College student was fatally stabbed and nearly decapitated Sunday after battling with her live-in boyfriend, cops said. The yelling between Sarah Coit, 23, and Raul Barrera, 33, inside their third-floor Lower East Side apartment grew so loud that it woke neighbors around 2:15 a.m., witnesses said.
Cops would later find Coit on the living room floor of the Clinton St. flat, blood spilling from her wounds.”Her whole neck was cut all the way,” said Briana Andalore, 20, who lives downstairs and saw the victim being hauled away on a stretcher. “Her head was almost cut off.”
Coit, who worked sales at Lacoste, sources said, and last enrolled at Hunter a year ago, according to the school, died at Beth Israel Medical Center about an hour later.
