A Georgia woman vacationing with her husband on Grenada was killed Sunday morning while walking along the beach, officials said. Jessica Colker, 39, and her husband, Brian Melito, were attacked near the La Sagesse resort by a man wielding a cutlass-style blade, police said. Melito, 62, managed to escape the assault, but his wife did not. Her body was found minutes later after the suspect fled into nearby mangroves, according to local reports. An autopsy report released Tuesday determined that an extensive skull fracture and asphyxia caused her death. The couple, world travelers who fell in love while traveling through Central America, had been married for only two years after a three-month engagement. They had arrived at the resort on Saturday night. They met at a dance workshop in Costa Rica and spent the rest of their vacation “dancing, talking, surfing, eating great food, swimming under the stars and generally falling in love,” according to site dedicated to their 2014 wedding. Colker’s alleged killer, Dave Martin Benjamin, surrendered himself to St. David authorities Monday morning, MTV News Grenada reported, citing authorities. Benjamin was recently released from prison. The U.S. Embassy in Barbados stated that it had aided local police in investigating Colker’s death. Colker worked as a physician’s assistant at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution. “Jessica was a valued member of our Children’s team,” hospital spokeswoman Julie Holkeboer said in a statement to the paper. “We are deeply saddened by this horrific news. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family during this very difficult time.” Source: NYDN
