A woman who was strangled and then run over by her assailant in Aurora has died and police have arrested a suspect in the case.
At about 4:30 a.m. on March 4, officers responded to reports of an injured woman in a parking lot near East 11th Avenue and Peoria Street, police said in a news release. The victim, who had suffered serious injuries, was taken to a local hospital.
