Story from Jam Press (Model Balcony Stabbing) Pictured: Pamela Genini. Model ?stabbed to death by ex on balcony? as horrified neighbours watch on A model has allegedly been stabbed to death on her balcony by her ex-boyfriend as shocked neighbours looked on. Pamela Genini was reportedly murdered at around 10pm on Tuesday (14 Oct) night. The suspect, named as Gianluca Soncin, 52, is said to have arrived at her home to beg her to take him back. Before he could get into the building, Pamela managed to send a message to a friend who called emergency services. When officers arrived, Pamela reportedly used the code word ?Glovo? to make the suspect believe she was receiving a food delivery. But Soncin allegedly turned violent and grabbed a kitchen knife. As police made their way up the stairs, Pamela ran out onto her balcony, where Soncin reportedly stabbed her multiple times in front of horrified onlookers. By the time officers smashed down the front door, the model was lying in a pool of blood. The suspect then apparently tried to take his own life by stabbing himself twice in the throat in front of police. He was rushed to hospital for treatment, where he remains in custody, as reported by NeedToKnow. The pair had been in a relationship for about a year before their split. Friends described them as opposites - Pamela was outgoing and always seen with her chihuahua, while Soncin was said to be quiet and reserved. Although they didn?t live together, he was often seen visiting her apartment in the Milan district of Gorla in Italy. Pamela was a former child model who turned professional at 16. She appeared on a Love Island-style dating show called L?isola di Adamo ed Eva when she was 19. The 29-year-old went on to work as a luxury real estate agent and launched her own bikini brand, EP SheLux, a few years ago. Pamela split her time between Milan, Monte Carlo and Dubai, but often returned to visit family in her hometown of Strozza, in Italy?s Bergamo Province. She was a regular on the red carpet at glitzy events such as the Venice Film Festival - usually accompanied by her beloved chihuahua, Bianca. An investigation into her death is ongoing. Pamela?s friend and business partner Elisa Barolotti said: ?I just hope there is justice and you pay for taking away someone who was a sister to me. ?Goodbye Pam, we won?t grow old together. ?You will never grow old. ?I love you, my friend.?
