An 18-year-old Texas woman is charged with murder after allegedly using the promise of sex to lure a man out of his apartment so three men could rob him and his roommates at gunpoint, which eventually led to the victim’s shooting death, say police.

On Monday, Dallas police arrested Sydnee Whitaker and charged her with capital murder in connection with the May 2 death of Adrian Wells, 21, according to an arrest warrant affidavit obtained by PEOPLE.

The friend told detectives he thought “something didn’t sound right about her wanting to come see him and have sex because she had just met Whitaker,” the affidavit says.

Whitaker was also allegedly “blowing up” Wells’ phone before she came over, the friend told the detective.

Wells’ friend told police he believes Whitaker “lured” Wells outside so the men could “kidnap and rob him,” the affidavit says.
