A recent contestant on "America's Next Top Model" was killed in a triple slaying in Charlotte, North Carolina, police and the reality show's producers said on Wednesday.
Police said Mirjana Puhar, 19, was among three people whose bodies were
found in a home Tuesday evening. Emmanuel Jesus Rangel, 19, was
arrested on Wednesday and charged with three counts of murder, Charlotte
police said in a statement.
It appears the incident was drug-related and that the victims and suspect knew one another, police said.
Puhar appeared in the modeling show's 21st cycle, which began airing last August.
"We are deeply saddened to learn of the tragic news about Mirjana
Puhar," the show's executive producers Tyra Banks and Ken Mok said in a
statement. "She was a vivacious and promising young woman. Our hearts
and prayers go out to her loved ones."
