A man has been arrested and charged following the death of a woman in East Kilbride. Emergency services were called to a block of flats on Glen Lee at around 12.10pm on Monday November 18.

The body of Phoenix Spencer-Horn, 21, was found inside the St Leonard’s property. The 26-year-old man is due to appear at Hamilton Sheriff Court on Wednesday November 20.

A report has been submitted to the Procurator Fiscal. The popular young woman had worked locally in the Strathaven Hotel and Roasted cafe in Strathaven.

It is believed she had been working on Friday but a source said she had failed to turn up for a shift on Monday. Shocked locals watched on as a convoy of police cars and ambulances turned up on the quiet residential street just after lunchtime.

Detective Chief Inspector Susie Cairns, Lanarkshire CID, said: “Phoenix’s family are obviously stunned and completely devastated by what has happened and we will continue to support them and those affected during this very distressing time.
