SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (AP) — A 28-year-old Springfield man is charged with second-degree murder in the death of a transgender woman.
Prosecutors allege Charles Nelson shot 26-year-old Dominique Lucious to death on Thursday.
Court documents say Nelson and Lucious met on an online dating service and were to meet Thursday at Lucious’s apartment.
Witnesses told police they saw a man matching Nelson’s description leaving the apartment after hearing gunshots.
Nelson, who is also charged with armed criminal action, is being held in the Greene County Jail without bond.
No attorney for Nelson is listed in online court records.
