TIGARD, Ore. (AP) — A woman has been arrested in Washington state in connection with the murder of an Oregon man, nearly a month after he was found dead in a Tigard, Oregon, hotel room.

Danielle Morin, 46, was arrested just north of Seattle in Mountlake Terrace, Washington, on Wednesday, and is awaiting extradition to Oregon, The Oregonian/OregonLive reported.

She is suspected of killing Brian Lowes of Nehalem, Oregon. Lowes, 61, checked into the Embassy Suites hotel on March 6 and was found dead in a hotel room a few hours later from multiple gunshot wounds.

Police would not say whether Morin and Lowes knew each other or what led to the shooting.

Investigators have asked anyone with information about the killing to contact Tigard Police at 503-718-2677 or [email protected].
