The man charged with murder after allegedly launching a shooting spree at three Atlanta-area spas in March will be arraigned next week.

The man charged with multiple murder counts after an alleged shooting spree at three Atlanta-area spas in March is scheduled to be arraigned next week. Robert Aaron Long is accused of killing eight people, including six Asian woman, on March 16. He's scheduled to be arraigned on Tuesday, the Cherokee County District Attorney's Office told ABC News. Among 19 total counts, he faces four counts of murder, four counts of felony murder and one count of domestic terrorism. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution Wednesday that she believes a plea deal has been reached in the case ahead of the Cherokee County arraignment. But, Cyndi Crossland, a spokesperson for the Cherokee County District Attorney's Office, told ABC News that county D.A. Shannon Wallace "is ethically prohibited from discussing any type of plea negotiation."
