A Colorado man has been arrested after police say he murdered a woman he met on a social media platform.

Early in the morning on Aug. 1, Anabelle Floren-Wyant, 18, was found dead in the home of 26-year-old Jorge Meza-Alarcon Jr. in unincorporated El Paso County, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by KKTV.

A friend of Floren-Wyant’s told police that he dropped her off at Meza-Alarcon’s home to “collect money” from him, police said.

However, she told her friend that Meza-Alarcon was “weird” and asked her friend to periodically check in on her. Floren-Wyant eventually stopped replying, so the friend called police about 90 minutes after the last response from the victim.

Around 3 a.m., officers arrived at the suspect's house and found Floren-Wyant dead on the floor with her pants and underwear around her ankles and blood near her ear, authorities said.

Police located Meza-Alarcon about three miles away from the crime scene with visible injuries to his face, the affidavit states.

He claimed to police he agreed to meet with Floren-Wyant to have sex for money via Snapchat and text messages. When he was paying her, he alleged she hit him with an object, possibly a phone, and he blacked out, officials said.

Meza-Alarcon said he eventually regained consciousness miles from his home, so he called 911.

He claims Floren-Wyant had threatened him in the past, the affidavit states, and alleged he felt threatened after she arrived at his house and saw a vehicle outside. According to the suspect, he believed the person in the vehicle and the victim were going to attack him.

After Floren-Wyant allegedly hit him, Meza-Alarcon said he put her in a leglock and then a chokehold until she died, the affidavit shows.
