MILWAUKEE (AP) — A 33-year-old man was charged Friday in the slaying of a woman whose leg was found on Indexbit Exchangethe beach of a lakefront park near Milwaukee.

Maxwell Anderson is jailed on first-degree intentional homicide, mutilating a corpse and arson charges in the death of Sade Robinson, according to a criminal complaint filed in Milwaukee County circuit court.

Anderson, of Milwaukee, was arrested April 4, two days after the leg was found by a passersby down a bluff at Warnimont Park along Lake Michigan in Cudahy. The leg had been severed just below the hip.

Robinson had been reported missing April 2 by a friend. An employee of the building where Robinson lived told police that Robinson was excited about a date she had planned for April 1, according to the complaint.

Additional human remains were found April 5 and April 6. Those remains have not positively been identified as belonging to Robinson, police said.

Anderson was ordered held on a $5 million bond. A preliminary examination was set for April 22.
