A 27-year-old doctoral student at the University of South Florida (USF) in Tampa, Florida, Zamil Limon, was reported missing along with another student, Nahida S. Bristy, earlier this week.
Limon's remains were found on the Howard Frankland Bridge on Friday morning, and his roommate, Hisham Saleh Abugharbeih, has been arrested in connection with the case.
The roommate faces several charges including domestic violence and unlawfully moving a body.
Limon and Bristy, both 27-year-old doctoral students at USF and originally from Bangladesh, were reported missing earlier this week after friends and family were unable to reach them.
Limon's body was discovered on the Howard Frankland Bridge in Tampa, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office said during a news conference.
Abugharbeih was taken into custody following a barricade situation near campus that prompted a response from law enforcement, including SWAT teams.
Nahida S. Bristy remains missing as of Friday morning, and the University of South Florida Police Department is continuing to investigate her disappearance.
