Costa Rican authorities are on the lookout for a woman suspected of being involved in a homicide case after an American citizen was found dead in September.
The suspect, who remains unidentified, allegedly left the scene alone and is described as having a fair complexion with a slender build. She stands around 1.60 meters tall, with black hair.
Details of the Incident
The American citizen, known as Fleming, was discovered deceased on September 27 in a condominium near the beach. The location was in Playas del Coco, situated in the popular tourist region on Costa Rica’s northern Pacific coast.
Authorities reported that the individual entered the condo at 4:50 p.m. on the noted date. Surveillance footage captured the woman leaving the condo without the deceased.
