She later died from her injuries.
Police are looking for 44-year-old Racquel Haughton in connection with the homicide.
Authorities say she punched Vann in the head four times during the attack.

She went into emergency surgery, where she later died from her injuries.
Her family says they couldn’t recognize her when they visited the hospital.
