Three held over murder of tourist

Miami - Police here arrested three suspects at the weekend in connection with the murder of a Dutch tourist, a police spokeswoman said. Tosca Dieperink, 39, was shot dead on Friday after she and her husband, Gerri-Jan Dieperink, stopped their rental car at a petrol station to ask directions. The killing has dealt a blow to Florida's tourism industry, which was severely affected by a number of killings of tourists three years ago. Reuter
