Former Villanova star Howard Porter was trying to trade money and crack cocaine for sex with a prostitute when he was beaten to death, according to murder charges filed Tuesday against a St. Paul man.

Porter, 58, died May 26, a week after he was found unconscious in a Minneapolis alley.

Rashad Arthur Raleigh, 29, was charged Tuesday with second-degree murder. Raleigh was originally arrested in early June, but was released without being charged. He had been in custody on an unrelated charge of fleeing police since Aug. 16 before he was charged in Porter's death Tuesday.
