Hungarian authorities said a nurse from Portland, Oregon, was killed while vacationing in Budapest, and an Irishman has been arrested in connection to her slaying.

The Budapest Police Headquarters said Mackenzie Michalski, 31, was last seen early on Nov. 5 while at a nightclub.

But a friend of Ms. Michalski said the tourist’s Airbnb host reported that the victim never checked out of the home and never collected her belongings.

By Saturday, Budapest police said Ms. Michalski had been found dead and officers arrested an Irishman who was seen with the victim out at the nightclubs.

Police didn’t discuss the nature of the killing, but said an Irishman stuffed the woman’s remains in a suitcase and tried to hide them in the woods.

“Life Protection Division detectives questioned the Irishman as a suspect in manslaughter, who confessed and showed police where he had hidden the woman’s body. He was taken into custody and an arrest was initiated,” Budapest police said in a news release that was translated into English.

Ms. Michalski was a nurse practitioner at Providence St. Vincent Medical Center in Portland.

Another nurse who worked at the hospital, Melissa Jubane, was killed in September shortly after she returned from her honeymoon. Jubane’s neighbor has been charged in the slaying.
