HOUSTON (AP) - Three teens have been charged with capital murder in the fatal shooting of a man whose body was found in a Houston church parking lot.
Online jail records Saturday didn’t immediately provide custody information for 19-year-old Andres Rojo, 17-year-old Jorge Castro and 19-year-old Edgardo Ligas.
Police on Friday announced the arrests in the investigation into the death of 19-year-old Rikko Armando Valencia. Investigators believe robbery was the motive for the slaying of the fast-food restaurant employee shortly after he got off work.
A groundskeeper at Spring Woods Baptist Church discovered the body on Nov. 16 before services. Police have Valencia apparently was taking a shortcut through the parking lot when he was attacked.
