LAGRANGE, Ga. (WCBI) – A robbery plan goes wrong, leaving a Columbus man dead with 4 others in jail – and it happened hundreds of miles away.

Police there believe the shooting victim, Jevontay Carr, 24, and the above suspects tried to stop motorists by pretending to have a broken down vehicle.

As a motorist slowed down near the decoy, the shooting reportedly began.

The men are each charged with Felony Murder and Criminal Attempted Murder.

Pamela Barker is charged with Tampering with Evidence.
