Reports from overseas say a person of interest has been detained in Jordan in connection with the death of Jamey Carney.
Authorities identified the individual as 28-year-old Ahmad Al-Saqar.
Carney was found dead in her home in Ireland last week.
The 43-year-old Yonkers native had been living in Ireland for several years with her teenage daughter.
Officials have not released additional details about the circumstances surrounding her death or the detention.
The investigation remains active.
