The husband of a woman who was reported missing earlier this week has been arrested and is expected to be charged with her murder after her body was found under a Dallas bridge Wednesday afternoon.
Dallas Police said the body of 25-year-old Kyaira Nicole Williams was found under a bridge near southbound 8800 Julius Schepps Freeway at about 4 p.m. Wednesday with multiple gunshot wounds.
A CLEAR Alert had been issued for Williams after she was reportedly last seen a week ago near the 9700 block of Walnut Street. Police said at the time that the woman may have been in need of assistance.
Dallas Police Homicide Detectives have arrested Williams' husband, 26-year-old Brannon Williams, and said he'll be charged with murder though they didn't offer any details on what led them to develop him as a suspect in her death.
