Police: Man Kills, Robs Norristown Man He Met Online

NORRISTOWN, Pa. (CBS/AP) — A central Pennsylvania man who allegedly skipped his September trial on child rape charges has been charged with robbing and killing a suburban Philadelphia man he met on the Internet.

Police say 28-year-old Chad Marshall Wilcox of Williamsport killed 36-year-old Manuel Hakimian of Norristown and used his bank and credit cards in at least five states before he was arrested in North Carolina.

Wilcox was arraigned Friday on charges of first-degree murder, robbery and related offenses in the September 21 killing.

He's being held without bail.
