Description
A suspect has been taken into custody in connection to the death of Laken Riley, a 22-year-old Augusta University nursing student who was found dead on the University of Georgia's campus Thursday, according to school officials.
"At this time, there are no indications of a continuing threat to the UGA campus related to this matter," UGA Police said in a statement.
A new conference is set to take place at 7 p.m., where investigators will provide more details.
In an update on Friday, authorities officially ruled Riley's death a homicide. Athens-Clarke County Police and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation are also working on the ongoing investigation.
11Alive crews were at the scene at the Cielo at Azulyk and Argo Apartment Community Friday, where there was a large police presence. Agents with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and the UGA Police Department could be seen processing the scene, including digging through a dumpster near the apartments.
