Unsolved criminal case in Ludwigsburg: Suspected murderer arrested after almost 46 years. He is said to have killed a woman with more than 30 stab wounds in June 1978.

A fingerprint triggered urgent suspicion against the 66-year-old American. The man was stationed in Germany as a US soldier at the time. The Stuttgart public prosecutor has requested extradition proceedings for the man, who is now in custody in the U.S. and will be extradited to Germany.
