An Oxford University employee and a US professor suspected of killing a man in Chicago have handed themselves in.<\/p>\n

Somerville College senior treasury assistant Andrew Warren, 56, handed himself in nearly 2,000 miles away in San Francisco while Prof Wyndham Lathem, 42, gave himself up in Oakland.<\/p>\n

The pair have been accused of fatally stabbing Trenton Cornell-Duranleau, 26, in Mr Lathem’s Chicago flat on 27 July.<\/p>\n

The killing triggered a US-wide manhunt for the suspects.<\/p>\n

Mr Warren and Mr Lathem are due in separate courts in California in the coming days where authorities will seek to have them transferred to Chicago.<\/p>\n

Chicago Police Department (CPD) spokesman Anthony Guglielmi tweeted that both suspects were now in police custody in Oakland.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Chicago police said: “Both individuals will be held accountable for their actions and we hope today’s arrest brings some comfort for the victim’s family.”<\/p>\n

Wyndham Lathem is a microbiology professor at Northwestern University in Illinois, who specialises in the bacteria that caused the bubonic plague.<\/p>\n

He sent family and friends a video in which he apologised, police said.<\/p>\n

Supervisory deputy US Marshall Frank Conroy said Mr Warren had handed himself into a police station in San Francisco, while Mr Lathem gave himself up in Oakland.<\/p>\n

Hairstylist Trenton Cornell-Duranleau was originally from Michigan, but was living in Chicago at the time of his death.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A Thames Valley Police spokesman said Mr Warren was reported missing on 25 July having left the UK the day before.<\/p>\n

Oxford University said it had been in contact with police in the UK about Mr Warren and was “ready to help the US investigating authorities in any way they need”.<\/p>\n

The statement added: “Andrew Warren’s colleagues at Somerville College have now all been informed and are shocked to learn of the case.”<\/p>\n
