COLUMBUS, Ohio - An Ohio coroner says the head and arms of a woman were found in the freezer of the man charged with killing her.

Columbus police say other remains were found in trash bins, a pond and brush near an apartment complex on the city's southwest side.

Police were called Wednesday night after a maintenance worker found what he thought were body parts in the pond. Police have charged 50-year-old Robert Knight with murder in the death of 44-year-old Tracey Moore, who lived with him at the complex.

The coroner, Jan Gorniak, says she may wait to perform the autopsy until more remains are found.

Knight was in court Friday morning and made no comment as a judge set bond at $2 million. Court records do not list an attorney for him.
