PRESCOTT, Ariz. (AP) - Two people have been arrested in connection with a homicide in the town of Clarkdale east of Prescott, authorities said.
They said 46-year-old Troy Hockett of Clarkdale has been booked into the Yavapai County Jail on suspicion of second-degree murder, concealment of a dead body and tampering with physical evidence.
Clarkdale police said 44-year-old Melinda Ezell of Oklahoma was being held on suspicion of hindering prosecution in the first degree.
It was unclear Thursday if either Hockett or Ezell has a lawyer yet.
Clarkdale police officials said officers went to a home Wednesday morning to investigate a suspicious death.
No other details about the case have been released yet, but police said they have determined it’s a homicide.
