I'd probably say King Minos if anyone, since it was his idea to keep the beast alive and feed it sacrifices.
I think you mean "killed the Minotaur", because the Minotaur wasn't "found", it was born to Minos' wife, the Queen of Crete. In that case, it was Theseus
Theseus.
According to the story of Theseus, Athens was required by Minos of Crete to send 7 young men and 7 young women to be a sacrifice for the Minotaur. It was during the third such event that Theseus slayed the Minotaur. So as few as 14 and as many as 21.
Theseus was the hero who defeated the Minotaur with his bare hands.
In Cretan mythology, Theseus slayed the minotaur. He did it with the help of a ball of string and Ariadne, who knew the minotaur in some ways too intimately. Not that way. The minotaur is a half bul half man . http://thenorthnode.wordpress.com/2008/10/21/theseus-and-the-minotaur/ Very nice looking blogsite, with a synopsis of the myth with a bit of discussion concerning wandering up that particular emotional labyrinthine alley surrounding it.
Theseus was from Athens. He fought the Minotaur in Crete.

I think the story you are talking about is the Minotaur which was half-bull half-human. The Minotaur was put in the Labyrinth to kill unwanted travelers. It was killed by Theseus.

Theseus kills a few creatures in Greek myth, but the most famous is the Minotaur.
