PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Police near Philadelphia say a man who was shot earlier this week was likely killed for selling bad drugs, not because his girlfriend sought out a hitman on Facebook.
Police in Upper Darby on Thursday charged a man with carjacking the vehicle involved in Monday night’s shooting of Corey White.
White’s ex-girlfriend is being held on charges she used Facebook to find someone to kill him. A judge upheld felony charges against London Eley and 18-year-old Timothy Bynum hours before White was killed.
Both had been in jail for weeks when someone stepped out of a car and shot White.
Upper Darby Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood says 24-year-old Alexander Solomon is now charged with carjacking that vehicle. Chitwood says it appears White was killed for selling bad marijuana.
