SELLERSVILLE, Pa. (WTXF) - A Bucks County man is now charged with criminal homicide for the death of an older neighbor.

Investigators said Damien Walker, 34 of Sellersville, went to Norristown police Tuesday night and confessed to killing his 62-year-old neighbor. That led police right to the woman's body in her apartment on the 100 block of N. Main Street.

Police also say Walker told them he'd been using meth when it happened.

The Bucks County Coroner removed the victim's body and an autopsy was scheduled for Thursday.

Her name hasn't been released. Neither has a possible motive for the killing.

Walker was arraigned and sent to Bucks County Correctional Facility. He is being held without bail. A preliminary hearing is tentatively scheduled for Monday.
