INVERNESS, Fla. — Citrus County Sheriff's deputies arrested a 61-year-old after they found her roommate dead and wrapped in a tarp at an Inverness house.

Tracy Lee Stanley was arrested for second-degree murder and is being held without bond, deputies said. They were dispatched to a house on East Rector Street after the sheriff's office received a call about a dead person being located on Saturday night. 

Deputies found 72-year-old Andrea Kathleen Day dead and wrapped in a tarp inside the home. 

"My sincerest condolences go out to the family of Andrea Day as they begin the long process of healing," said Sheriff Prendergast. "This was a senseless act of violence. Thank you to our deputies and detectives, who worked swiftly and diligently to take this suspect into custody."

The Citrus County Sheriff's Office is still investigating and no other information was immediately provided.
