Roommate arrested in Oregon City disappearance of Kara Taylor
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- A suspect in the disappearance of 49-year-old Kara Taylor from Oregon City was arrested early Monday morning.
According to the Oregon City police, at around 12:30 a.m., they arrested Jamon Peter Fritsch, 47, on a warrant.
Fritsch lived in the same residence as Taylor and reported her missing on July 27 after she was last seen on July 25, authorities said.
On Aug. 5, after executing a warrant at the residence at 221 Jefferson Street and other locations, investigators said they discovered evidence that led them to believe that Taylor had died by homicide.
A warrant was placed on Fritsch and he was arrested at their residence on charges of second-degree murder, first-degree manslaughter and second-degree abuse of a corpse.
Investigators are still trying to locate Taylor's remains and ask anyone with information to contact the police.
