ST. LOUIS (AP) - A 27-year-old St. Louis man has been charged with first-degree murder in the death of a woman found badly injured on railroad tracks.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch on Saturday reported Anthony Newberry was also charged with kidnapping and robbery related to Lynette Lecates' death.
Lecates was found May 23 on a stretch of St. Louis railroad tracks and rushed to a hospital in critical condition.
The 41-year-old St. Louis woman died roughly two weeks later.
Online court records didn't list an attorney for Newberry as of Saturday.
