PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The man arrested in connection with the disappearance of Philadelphia woman Kada Scott has now been charged with her murder.

The District Attorney's Office said Wednesday it has approved charges of not only murder, but also robbery, theft, abuse of a corpse, tampering with evidence and other offenses against 21-year-old Keon King.

The charges came after the medical examiner's office said Scott, 23, died by homicide. It was not immediately known how Scott was killed.

"We will continue to pursue justice for Ms. Scott, her family, and all victims of crime," Deputy Commissioner Frank Vanore said in a social media post.

King was previously charged with kidnapping, arson and other offenses and is being held on $2.5 million bail.
