KITCHENER, Ont. – A 37-year-old Kitchener man has been arrested in connection with the death of a 24-year-old woman whose torso was found in a garbage bin.
Waterloo Regional Police said the man is in police custody and is to appear in court to be charged with first-degree murder and committing an indignity to a dead human body.
The man was arrested in Kitchener just before 4 a.m. Thursday without incident, police said.
Police said the name of the accused will not be released until he appears in court.
A torso later identified as the remains of Kelsey Louise Felker was found in a trash bin last Saturday in Kitchener.

At the request of the family, police released a photograph of Felker when she was 15.
