According to officials, the death is being investigated as a homicide. The victim was the home’s landlord, police say, and the suspect, who is currently in police custody, is one of the home’s renters.
Police say that tow truck transported the suspect, along with a large plastic bag to Foster Beach. That’s where authorities say they found bloody rags and more human remains inside of a garbage can.
“The tow truck driver actually gave us a location and explained the person he was transporting actually pulled a knife on him, so officers responded to that scene and placed the suspect into custody,” Deenihan said.“Everyone knew her. She was very friendly,” she said. “When we first moved in, she’d come over to welcome us.”
“There’s never been any issues in this neighborhood before,” Andy, a neighbor who lives near the boarding house, said.This article tagged under:
