SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Prosecutors have filed murder charges against five people after a woman who was stabbed during a home invasion in South Bend died over the weekend.

The St. Joseph County Prosecutor's Office said Monday that two counts of felony murder were filed against 47-year-old Walter Neely; 21-year-old Khawana Lamar; 19-year-old Lee Griffin; 18-year-old Nate Coley; and 17-year-old Gemari Cotton.

They're charged in the stabbing death of Sandra Price.

The five previously were charged with two robbery counts and three burglary counts in the Dec. 27 break-in in which four other people also were injured.

Court records don't indicate whether any of the five have attorneys. They're being held in the county jail on $100,000 cash bonds. They're scheduled to make their initial court appearances Jan. 14.
