Toronto police say investigators have made an arrest in the death of a student from Beijing, who was last seen alive on a webcam by her boyfriend in China as she struggled with an attacker.
Brian Dickson, 29, has been charged with first-degree murder, police spokesman Tony Vella told The Associated Press on Wednesday, shortly before a scheduled news conference by the police.
Police said the body of 23-year-old York University student Liu Qian was found Friday in her apartment in Toronto a few hours after her boyfriend in China witnessed the attack. She was naked from the waist down, but there were no obvious signs of sexual assault or trauma that would have led to her death.
Liu was chatting with her boyfriend, Meng Xianchao, by webcam at about 1 a.m. Friday when a man knocked on the door, police said.
Meng reported seeing a struggle break out between the two before Liu's webcam was shut off. The friend contacted other friends in Toronto who in turn called police.
