The Micronesian state of Yap announced Monday that arrests have been made over the murder of a US lawyer working as the attorney general in the tiny Pacific nation.
Yap Governor Henry Falan said more than one person had been detained for the killing of 33-year-old Rachelle Bergeron, but gave no indication of how many had been arrested.
"Arrests have been made in the murder of acting Attorney-General Rachelle Bergeron," Falan said in a statement.
"The next stage in the investigation will be the court proceedings as the State moves toward the final stage of conviction. No names will be issued by the authorities at this time."
