Man arrested in death of 31-year-old Liberal woman

Police have arrested a man in the killing of a Liberal woman whose death initially appeared to be a suicide.

The High Plains Daily Leader reports that no charges have been filed against the suspect. He was arrested Friday in the death of 31-year-old Andrea Garrison.

Liberal Police Capt. Pat McClurg said in a news release that police responded Jan. 2 to a possible suicide. Garrison was pronounced dead at the scene and an autopsy was completed Jan. 5.

McClurg said there were “suspicious circumstances.” He said that after talking to witnesses, conducting search warrants and collecting evidence, investigators determined Garrison was the “victim of foul play.”

McClurg says the investigation is ongoing. No other details were immediately provided.
