ODESSA -- An Odessa teen has been indicted for a fatal November shooting.

    Trevor Atchison is charged with two counts of aggravated robbery and one count of murder.

    Investigators say Atchison, 18, tried to rob Evan Fitts  in a moving pickup truck that was driving along North Dixie Avenue near Sherwood Park on November 11th. Two other people were also in the vehicle at the time.

    At some point during the incident, someone shot Fitts, 19, in the back. The truck eventually crashed into a house on East 49th Street.

    Fitts and several others jumped out of the truck before it crashed. Fitts was rushed to Medical Center Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

    In addition to the shooting, Odessa Police say Atchison also stole a woman's purse at gunpoint at an alley in the 300 block on East 48th Street on November 8th.

    The incidents reportedly happened while Atchison was wearing an ankle monitor for probation. The monitor showed that Atchison was away from his home at the time of the fatal shooting of Fitts.
   
    Atchison was also accused of another robbery in the Permian High School parking lot in December 2010.

    Atchison is being held on $750,000 bond.
