The 22 year old from Flowers Bank will be arraigned in Punta Gorda for murder, Attempted Murder, Dangerous Harm and Use of Deadly Means of Harm.

Trapp is alleged to be the gunman who chased Hines into Valentine's yard, killing Valentine, and injuring Hinds. He was then seen riding off on bicycle.

In October, Trapp left jail after four years on remand for the murder of Ian Adolphus Jr. He walked out of court free after the DPP's office entered a nolle pros, saying that there is not enough evidence to prove the murder charge. The victim, Adolphus Jr told police on his deathbed that Trapp was the shooter.
