The discovery of a digital camera stolen from the popular actress Monica Spear and her ex-husband was the key to identifying the seven people arrested in their fatal shooting, the chief of Venezuela's criminal police said.

Venezuelan police have arrested seven people including a woman and two teenagers over the brutal double murder of a beauty queen turned soap star and her British-born partner, prosecutors said on Wednesday.

A single bullet killed a former Miss Venezuela in a double murder that also claimed her British partner and highlighted the country's violent crime epidemic, her manager said on Wednesday.

Gunmen shot dead a former Miss Venezuela and her British-born partner in front of their five-year-old daughter, who was wounded in an attack that dismayed the crime-plagued nation, authorities said on Tuesday.
