An American woman was killed in Antigua and Barbuda last night.



The body of 30-year-old Nina Elizabeth Nilssen was discovered at Windward Bay, just west of Antigua\'s Nelson\'s Dockyard.



The police say Ms Nilssen was found lying on her back with what appeared to be a stab wound to her neck.



The killing comes 18 months after a British honeymoon couple was murdered and a year after an Australian sailor was shot and killed.
