Homicide investigators confirmed Friday they had arrested one person in relation to the disappearance of Langley mother and teacher Naomi Onotera.
A spokesperson for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team confirmed that one person was taken into custody Friday, but could not elaborate on their connection or relationship to Onotera.
Homicide investigators were continuing their search of Onotera’s home, with the help of a forensic team, IHIT said.
Investigators first descended on Onotera’s Langley City residence in September, but were tight lipped at the time about what drew them there.
