    A week after a woman was found dead in Fort Lauderdale, police are working to calm community concerns and dispel online rumors surrounding the case.

    During a Tuesday press conference, investigators emphasized that there is no evidence of a serial killer, calling such claims unfounded and harmful. Fort Lauderdale Police Homicide Sgt. Don Geiger said the speculation has caused unnecessary fear among residents and their families.

    Authorities have arrested Altavious Powell, who was charged Thursday with first-degree murder in connection with the death of 30-year-old Daneshia Heller. The investigation remains ongoing.
