MOBILE, Ala. (AP) -- Two people have been arrested on the Mississippi coast following a weekend killing in Alabama, Mobile police said.

Robert Jamonte Abrams, 30, and girlfriend Breanna Cunningham were charged with murder in the shooting death of 45-year-old Manchella Allen at a strip club, authorities said in a statement.

Allen was killed early Saturday at the Cookies-N-Cream Gentleman's Club, and the two were arrested in Biloxi, Mississippi, on Tuesday.

Court records weren't yet available Wednesday to show whether Abrams or Cunningham had a lawyer who could speak on their behalf.
