GULFPORT, Miss. � A Mississippi man has been charged with
capital murder in the slaying and sexual assault of a 5-year-old
girl who was taken from an apartment complex last week.

Gulfport Police Chief Leonard Papania says charges were filed
Wednesday against 29-year-old Alberto Julio Garcia of Gulfport,
identified several days ago as a person of interest in the
slaying of Ja-Naya (juh-NAY-uh) Thompson.

Papania says Garcia will be held without bond. Garcia has been
in jail since he was arrested Friday in an unrelated case.

The child was last seen outside her family's apartment the
evening of July 16. Her body was found the next day in an
abandoned trailer nearby. The coroner says she was strangled to
death.

It was not immediately clear whether Garcia has an attorney.
