Robin Melody Carbaugh, 26, was arrested at about 2:30 a.m. at a trailer in Blacksburg. Investigators would not say whose trailer it was and gave no details about her relationship with the man she is accused of killing.
Carbaugh is charged with murder and was being held in the Montgomery County Jail on $150,000 bond.
Late Monday, Michael Wayne Webb, 33, was found lying in the carport of a home on a rural section of Yellow Sulphur Springs Road. The occupants of the house found him there after hearing him crying for help. He had been stabbed on the left side of his chest and died before rescue crews arrived.
Sheriff's investigators initially were unable to identify Webb. They later learned his name and learned he was from Ohio and had been living in different parts of Christiansburg and Montgomery County the past few years.
Investigators had worked day and night since Monday to find Webb's killer, interviewing people and searching for clues at Webb's home near Christiansburg, Chief Deputy Milton Graham said.
"I think the investigators did a good job on this case," Graham said. "It was an intensive three-day investigation."
Graham added that they worked through the night Wednesday to gather more clues in the case. He said the investigation was continuing, but he did not say whether further arrests or charges were expected.
