Sudbury police have arrested a man wanted in connection with the murder of a woman who was first reported as missing in Niagara Falls last week.

Investigators searched the area of Thundering Waters Boulevard and Marineland Parkway after she was reported missing on Oct. 31.

Police discovered the body of an adult woman who was later identified as Lepp.

David Mathew Brown, 46, was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for second-degree murder in connection with her death.

On Thursday, officers with the Greater Sudbury Police Service found Brown in the city’s downtown core and arrested him.

Brown is currently in custody pending a bail hearing Friday at a St. Catharines courthouse.
