An Indiana Uber driver was formally charged Monday with trying to rape one of his female passengers before fatally shooting her in the head.

Francisco Valadez, 29, was initially taken into custody on suspicion of murder after Indianapolis Metro Police said he picked up 30-year-old Chanti Dixon in the early morning of Sep. 8. She was found dead in a wooded area near her apartment the following day.

The Marion County Prosecutors Office formally charged Valadez on Monday with two counts of murder, attempted rape and abuse of a corpse, according to court records reviewed by HuffPost.
