An arrest was made in the disappearance of University of Utah student Mackenzie Lueck, according to officials, saying it “took one person into custody” in the case.
Salt Lake City police didn’t offer any details on the arrest, but it made an announcement on Twitter.
Lueck, 23, was last seen meeting an unknown person at around 3 a.m. on June 17 at a Salt Lake City park after she was dropped off by a Lyft driver.
On June 27, a person of interest was named in the case.
Salt Lake City Police Chief Mike Brown said the homeowner spoke with investigators but was not in custody and declined to name him. But authorities said they believe the house has an unspecified connection to the disappearance of 23-year-old Mackenzie Lueck.
Online court and property records identify the man as 31, divorced this year and with no criminal record in Utah. The Associated Press is not naming him because authorities have not done so.
Investigators want to find a mattress and box spring they say the homeowner gave away last week, and speak with whoever took it, Brown said.
Lueck disappeared June 17 after taking a Lyft from the city’s airport to a park, where police said she met someone at about 3 a.m. They have said the Lyft driver had no connection with her disappearance.
