OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Omaha police say a 37-year-old suspect in a man's slaying is now linked to a second killing.
Autumn Acacia-Cortes was arrested Friday on suspicion of first-degree murder in the death of 53-year-old Francisco Santiago, whose body was found Wednesday on the property of Our Lady of Guadalupe's social hall.
Acacia-Cortes was already booked into the jail on Saturday in the killing 58-year-old Jose Martinez.
His body was found Jan. 20 at Highland Tower. Acacia-Cortes was being held without bail on first-degree murder and other charges in that death.
Police did not say Friday what led them to connect the two men's deaths.
