Joshua Bryant, 25 of Unk, was arrested on Feb. 8 for capital murder and other charges before being booked into the Smith County Jail where his bond has been set at $1 million.

According to Bryant\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s arrest warrant, in an interview with authorities he allegedly told them he had met up with Martin that night in his car but \u00e2\u20ac\u0153claimed to have blacked out and denied having any memory of what occurred\u00e2\u20ac\u009d when he was asked about the incident.<\/p>\n

Bryant was arrested a few hours after the incident was reported for reportedly stealing a car.

The warrant said that evidence indicated a third person to be involved \u00e2\u20ac\u0153in the robbery of Martin to obtain his vehicle, leading to the murder of Martin\u00e2\u20ac\u009d but Bryant claimed to not know who else was in the car.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
