MONTREAL -- Montreal police have arrested a 62-year-old man in connection with the murder of a woman in Nuns' Island in September.

Frank Cao was arrested in Ste-Catherine, on the South Shore, on Thursday and appeared at the Montreal courthouse Friday to face first-degree murder charges.

The arrest comes more than three months after a woman in her 50s was found dead in a vehicle parked in the indoor parking lot of a residential building on de la Rotonde St. in Nuns' Island.

The autopsy performed on the victim's body revealed that she died of injuries caused by another person using physical force, police said. They never specified the cause of death further.

An in-depth analysis of the crime scene and the investigative work over the past few weeks led to the arrest of the suspect, Frank Cao, police said.
