A man was arrested Wednesday in Pennsylvania and charged with murder in the death of a former Playboy playmate who was found strangled in her apartment last week.

Axar.az reports citing FOX News.

Jonathan Wesley Harris, 30, was taken into custody in Pittsburgh after he fled the Philadelphia area, where playmate Christina Carlin-Kraft, 36, was found, the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office said.

Carlin-Kraft was found dead on Aug. 22 in the bedroom of her condo in the upscale suburb of Ardmore, located just west of Philadelphia. Her cause of death was ruled "ligature strangulation."

Investigators said that in the early hours on the day she was killed, Carlin-Kraft left her apartment, and was seen on surveillance video meeting Harris and entering a vehicle together.

Just after 3 a.m., the two entered Carlin-Kraft's apartment. The district attorney's office said that the front door of her home was opened at 3:08 a.m. and the back door, which led to a terrace, was closed at 5:19 a.m.

During this period, "a violent struggle occurred in the apartment" and Carlin-Kraft "was beaten, her nose was broken and she was strangled to death."

Police filed an arrest warrant on Tuesday, and on Wednesday, Harris was charged with first-degree murder in Carlin-Kraft's death.
