MAYS LANDING, N.J.—Wednesday's bail hearing has been postponed for the woman accused of killing two Canadian tourists in Atlantic City.

Antoinette Pelzer remains held on $1.5 million bail.

Police say the Philadelphia resident, who has often been homeless, stabbed Po Lin Wan and her daughter Alice Mei See Leung, both from the Scarborough section of Toronto, with a 12-inch butcher knife during a mugging in May.

Pelzer laughed, frowned, grimaced and asked repeatedly where her lawyer was during her first court appearance.

The stabbing took place in the heart of Atlantic City's tourism district.
