Police in California have arrested a man in connection with a woman's mysterious death after an off-duty officer found her body at an aquatic park.

The Berkeley police officer found the woman lying on the shoreline at Berkeley's Aquatic Park, an area that is known as a hot spot for criminal activity.

Curtis Martin, 38, is accused in the woman death, though police would not say how Martin is connected to the victim, whose name has not been released.

"South Aquatic Park has its share of problems,” Officer Frankel told KTVU. “A reputation for drug use and prostitution in the past. I don't know if this relates to any of that."
