OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Authorities say three people are now facing felony charges for allegedly aiding a suspect wanted in a statewide manhunt before the suspect was shot and killed by Oklahoma troopers.

Oklahoma County District Attorney David Prater says Danny Roach, Reginald Moore, and April Harden, all of Oklahoma City, were charged on Monday with helping Michael Vance Jr. elude authorities.

Prater says Roach provided bandages, an assault rifle and ammunition to Vance last week after Vance shot and wounded two police officers and killed two relatives.

All three were charged with two counts of being an accessory to felony murder after the fact. Moore and Roach also were charged with shooting with intent to kill for allegedly providing Vance a weapon he used to shoot two people in western Oklahoma.
