CORAL SPRINGS, Fla. -- A Coral Springs man has been arrested on a first-degree murder charge after authorities found his wife's body in a submerged car in a lake.

Munawar Toha, 63, was arrested Tuesday after her body was found a day earlier, police said.

The body of Surya Sari-Prihatin Toha, 41, has been taken to the medical examiner for an autopsy. Authorities say a man matching Toha's description was seen on surveillance video pushing the car into the lake.

His wife disappeared on March 23 after she dropped off her children at school. Toha reported her missing the next day.

It was not immediately clear if Toha had an attorney on Tuesday.
