KEY LARGO, Fla. (TCN) — Authorities arrested a 33-year-old kayak tour guide on suspicion of killing a 43-year-old woman who was found dead in a hotel room this week.
According to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, on Monday, April 7, deputies responded to a report of a missing person, Nadyne Marie Tillman, after a family member hadn’t heard from her in two days.
Tillman reportedly met Dylan Lamb at the resort on the morning of Saturday, April 5. The sheriff’s office said Tillman’s body was later discovered “hidden in Lamb’s room thereafter with injuries consistent with being beaten.”
According to WTVJ-TV, Ka Thigpen said her mother was in town for her wedding and was staying at the Amoray Dive Resort in a room next to Lamb’s.
Authorities found and arrested Lamb on Tuesday, April 8, and he remains held in the Monroe County Jail. He faces multiple charges, including homicide, kidnapping-false imprisonment, and evidence destroying, WTVJ reports.
In a statement, Sheriff Rick Ramsay said, “I want to thank the men and women of the Sheriff’s Office for working around the clock to make an arrest in this case. While the investigation remains ongoing, there do not appear to be any other individuals involved in this incident.”
