Iryna Zarutska, 23, was found dead at 9.55pm on Friday at South End light rail station in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The woman had only recently moved to the US from Ukraine in an effort to escape the ongoing war with Russia.
A 34-year-old suspect, Decarlos Brown, was arrested shortly after police arrived on the scene.
Violent crime remains a major issue in Charlotte which has a higher-than-average crime rate compared to other US cities. The city is run by Democratic mayor Vi Lyles, who has been in office since 2017.
Zarutska was 'hoping for a new beginning,' loved ones say.
'This is an irreparable loss for her family,' a GoFundMe set up to support Zarutska's aunt read.
'We have created this fundraiser to support Valeria and her loved ones during this heartbreaking time and to help them with the unexpected expenses.'
