Savannah, Georgia, woman abducted and killed while vacationing in Puerto Rico

(AP) -- Police in Puerto Rico say a pregnant tourist from Savannah, Georgia, was killed Wednesday after she was abducted during a morning jog.

Sara Kuszak was stuffed into the trunk of a car, but was able to make a desperate call for help.  About an hour later she was found dead in a field with her throat slashed.  Based on the woman's description of her kidnapper's car, police arrested a local man whose clothing was covered with blood.  He was not immediately charged.  Police say the man was located because the FBI picked up a signal from the victim's cell phone, which he was carrying.

Kuszak had arrived in Puerto Rico Tuesday night where she met up with her fiance and several friends.
