New Haven Police Chief James Lewis said "an arrest warrant was signed... charging Clark with the murder of Annie Le". | |
Mr Lewis said Mr Clark and Ms Le worked in the same building, but would not say whether they knew each other. He called the killing "an issue of workplace violence". | |
Ms Le's body was in a deep recess within a basement wall - in an area where cables, pipes and ducts run between floors - of a research building where she worked as a medical researcher. | |
Security video showed her arriving but not leaving. | |
After repeated searches, a sniffer dog discovered her body five days later - on the day she had been due to marry Colombia University graduate student Jonathan Widwsky. | |
The office of the state chief medical examiner, Dr Wayne Carver, said the death of Annie Le was caused by "traumatic asphyxia due to neck compression". |
