A man was arrested in connection to the August 2023 killing of Rachel Morin, a mom of five whose body was found near a popular hiking trail in Maryland, authorities announced Saturday.

Victor Antonio Martinez-Hernandez, 23, was arrested Friday night in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and faces first-degree murder and rape charges in Morins killing, Harford County Sheriff Jeff Gahler announced in a news conference on Saturday .

The case had been shrouded in mystery for months after Morin was killed while out for a run, even as investigators connected DNA from the then-unknown suspect to another crime scene across the country. On Aug. 18, weeks after Morins body was found on Aug. 6 near Bel Airs Ma & Pa Trail, investigators announced that the DNA believed to belong to the suspected killer matched DNA collected from a hat left behind by the man suspected in a March 2023 home invasion in Los Angeles. Residential security camera video from the LA home invasion had captured the man, but in spite of the footage and a police sketch , he remained unidentified.
