An American tourist from Georgia was murdered on the Caribbean island of Grenada while on vacation, police say. Grenada police are questioning a suspect who turned himself in.

Police said the 39-year-old was walking along the beach with her husband when the two were attacked by a man with a sword.

The victim's husband was able to get away, but the woman was killed.

The attack happened just half a mile away from where other vacationers were sunbathing.
