Florida authorities say a 36-year-old woman killed her boyfriend, transported his body to another location and abandoned it near a dumpster.
Isidra Bautista Hernandez has been charged with second-degree murder, according to the Orlando Police Department’s press release.
Officers found Hernandez and arrested her without incident Wednesday. Police have not identified the victim because detectives were still working to notify his relatives.
A probable cause affidavit, which may provide details about the victim’s death and a possible motive, was not immediately available.

“The Orlando Police Department remains committed to thoroughly investigating violent crimes and working tirelessly to identify and apprehend those responsible,” the agency said. “Our officers and detectives will continue pursuing every lead to bring justice to victims and their families.”
Hernandez is being held without bond at the Orange County Jail. Authorities have not listed her next court appearance.
Local ABC affiliate WFTV reported that Hernandez and the victim had both entered the country illegally.
The investigation remains ongoing.
