TRAVIS COUNTY -- A Travis County grand jury returned a murder indictment against a former local firefighter accused in the death of his girlfriend.
Joe Carr, 27, who worked for the Pedernales Fire Department is accused of the murder of 22-year-old Veronica Navarro of Spicewood.
Her body was found floating in Lake Travis on July 6 on the east shoreline of Pace Bend Park. The body had been wrapped in a tent weighed down with a paint can.
Carr was arrested a short time later trying to leave the country by entering Canada.
Bond for the murder indictment was set at $500,000. Carr is in custody from the previous charge of tampering with physical evidence, which also has a $500,000 bond.
