Arrest made after paddleboarder's death sparks serial killer fears in sleepy coastal town

A teenager has been arrested in the suspicious death of a Maine paddleboarder that stoked fears of a serial killer looming throughout the New England region. 

A 17-year-old male was arrested for his alleged involvement in the death of 48-year-old Sunshine "Sunny" Stewart nearly two weeks after the paddleboarder was found near Union’s Crawford Pond, Maine State Police said in a press release on Thursday. 

Stewart was reported missing after she failed to return from a solo paddleboarding trip on July 2.
