Man charged in fatal shooting of woman met on Facebook

FERGUSON, Mo. - A Missouri man has been charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of a woman he allegedly met on Facebook.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that 20-year-old Stassie Greer also faces charges of first-degree robbery and two counts of armed criminal action in the death of 25-year-old Sharae Bradford. He is jailed on $1 million cash-only bond and does not have an attorney.

Bradford died Saturday night. Police say she was shot in the head. Money and a cellphone were taken.

Court documents say Greer arranged through social media to meet Bradford at the apartment to have sex in exchange for money. The documents say video surveillance helped lead police to Greer, and Bradford's phone was found at his home.

Bradford was a single mother with a 6-year-old daughter.
