Police found remains Sunday believed to be those of a missing teenager who they say was assaulted and went missing overnight after leaving a mosque in the Sterling area, and a 22-year-old man has been charged with murder in connection with the case. Fairfax County police identified the man as Darwin Martinez Torres, of Sterling. Remains believed to be the girl were found about 3 p.m. in a pond in the 21500 block of Ridegtop Circle in Sterling. Shoyeb Hassan, co-chair of the All Dulles Area Muslim Society in Sterling, identified the girl as 17-year-old Nabra. Detectives believe the remains are those of the missing 17-year-old girl, but the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner will confirm the identity and manner of death, Wright said.
