A homeless man is accused of breaking into a University of Miami student's Coral Gables apartment and stabbing him more than 60 times, leaving him dead, police said.
Robert Wayne Gore, 28, was arrested Wednesday in connection with the Oct. 7 death of Yasser Talal Ibrahim Abualfaraj.
An arrest affidavit suggests Gore entered Abualfaraj's apartment at 6580 Santona St. through an unlocked door, armed himself with "multiple sharp weapons" and stabbed the victim more than 60 times, killing him.
Police said Gore then left with several items belonging to Abualfaraj.
Abualfaraj's roommate returned to the apartment and discovered the body.
Police said Gore gave a recorded confession detailing his involvement in the burglary and fatal stabbing.
Gore faces charges of first-degree murder and armed burglary.
He was being held without bond at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.
