Vancouver police say they've arrested a 23-year-old man from Surrey in relation to the homicide of an 87-year-old woman.

The body of Elizabeth Poulin was found in her apartment on the weekend.

Police say the identity of the suspect can't be released until charges have been approved by Crown counsel.

They say homicide investigators are working to establish a motive.

A relative discovered Poulin dead at around 8 a.m. on Saturday morning.
