LAS VEGAS (AP) — Authorities in Las Vegas say a 29-year-old woman is sought on a murder warrant in the stabbing death of her husband, whose body was found a little more than three months after they were married.

Police say Nadia Renteria Bremer-Leroy hasn't been seen since before her husband's decomposing corpse was discovered July 7 in an apartment a little over a mile west of the Las Vegas Strip.

The Clark County coroner says 29-year-old Samuel Lorenzo Villanueva died of multiple stab wounds. His death was ruled a homicide.

Police haven't said what they think led to the slaying, but court records show that a warrant was issued July 15 for Bremer-Leroy's arrest.

Marriage records show that she and Villanueva married April 3 in Las Vegas.
