YAKIMA, Wash. -- Erick Garcia Romero, one of two men accused of killing a Yakima County jail inmate Wednesday, was ordered held on $10 million bail Thursday.

The bail is on top of a $3 million bail that was set in an earlier case in which Romero was charged with attempted murder after allegedly shooting at officers who tried to arrest him in connection with a drive-by shooting.

Romero, 25, of Yakima, is accused of fatally stabbing Timothy Denton in a Yakima County jail cell Wednesday morning. Jail video reportedly shows him leaving Denton’s cell with his arms covered in blood.
