Police have arrested a suburban Dallas man accused of strangling his wife and leaving her body in a car in a church parking lot.

Garland police say 36-year-old Julio Trevino was being held Friday in the city jail on a murder charge with bond set at $1 million. Jail officials didn't know whether the Garland man had an attorney. A home telephone listing for him was disconnected.

Police spokesman Joe Harn said the body of 31-year-old Pearl Ramos Hernandez was found in a sport utility vehicle by someone mowing the lawn at the church Thursday morning.

Police say they believe the woman died Wednesday night at the home she shared with Trevino, about a mile from the church.
