SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A man related to a 56-year-old woman found dead inside a burning home in San Francisco was arrested in her killing, police said.
Firefighters who responded on Easter Sunday to the fire at the home in the city's Mission District found the woman's body, the San Francisco Police Department said in a statement Monday.
Officers arrested Daniel Antonio Gudino, 29, after they found him bloody and nude on the patio of the burning residence, it said .
The officers were responding to a report of a person having a mental health crisis and when they arrived, the fire department was already on the scene extinguishing a blaze in the home. Firefighters told police there was a body in the bedroom.
Officers spoke with Gudino to "establish rapport" and took him into custody, police said.
Gudino was admitted to a local hospital for treatment. He was arrested on suspicion of homicide.
Authorities have not released the woman's identity or her relationship to Gudino.
