Turkish police have detained a man wanted for the killing of a New York City woman in Istanbul, an official said.
The suspect, identified by authorities only as Ziya T, had been on the run since the body of Sarai Sierra was discovered last month.
Authorities said Ms Sierra, a 33-year-old mother of two, died of a fatal blow to the head.
She had travelled alone to Turkey to explore her photography hobby.
Her body was found hidden near the city walls on February 12, days after her family reported her missing.
Governor Celalettin Lekesiz said the suspect was detained in Hatay province, near Turkey's border with Syria.
He gave no further detail about the arrest or the man's identity.
Turkish news reports have described the suspect as a homeless scrap paper collector who used to hang around Istanbul's ancient city walls.
The man was expected to be taken to Istanbul for questioning and to face possible formal arrest and charges.
Reports said police identified Ziya T as the main suspect in the case after DNA samples taken from his two brothers and a sister matched those found beneath Sierra's nails.
Police would not confirm these reports, saying the investigation is ongoing.
