COLUMBUS, Ga. (AP) — A third person was charged in the fatal shooting of an Alabama man, who was lured to Georgia to be robbed, authorities said.

Lydell Maynard Sparks, 19, was arrested Tuesday and charged with murder and armed robbery in the death of 22-year-old Travis Henry, news outlets reported.

Henry, of Montgomery, was found laying on the street June 22 with a gunshot wound to the chest.

Terreona Horton, 20, and a 17-year-old girl were also charged in Henry’s death.

Columbus Police detective Sherman Hayes said Horton lured Henry to Columbus after romantically communicating with him for two months on Facebook.
