Six days after a Mountain Home woman was found dead in her trunk, a man has been arrested for her murder. 

Scott Eugene Riggs was taken into custody about 7:30 p.m. Friday night on 1st degree murder charges in the death of 71 year old Paula Knudson Ferbrache.

The scene seems straight out of a horror movie. Paula was found dead in her trunk along a dirt road just outside of Mountain Home.

According to KTVB, the murder happened 5 hours after she had left work at Walmart.

So far police haven't said if Riggs and Paula were related or connected in some way. The investigation is ongoing.
