Orlando, FL: Police: Man Arrested For Fiance's Murder

Orlando police are investigating a domestic homicide that occurred early Sunday morning.
Orlando police officials say they responded to a domestic violence call at the Island Club Apartments on South Kirkman Road just before 2:30am.
Upon arrival, investigators found a deceased woman inside the apartment. Officials say the woman's fiance, 41-year-old Nestor Habarugira, spontaneously told police he was responsible for the death of his fiance.
Habarugira was detained for questioning, and subsequently arrested for his fiance's murder. She has been identified as 34-year-old Ruth Owino.
Officials say Habarugira will be booked into the Orange County jail Sunday morning.
Investigators have not released any details surrounding the murder, except that they believe the incident started when Owino told her fiance she no longer wanted to be engaged.
Habarugira and Owino have four children who are with a family member and working with a victim's advocate. Police say the couple has no apparent history of domestic violence.
