link_to check a checkbox

I have the following code and would like it so that you can click on "delete" it will check the checkbox. Is there a simple solution for this? I can't figure out how to do it with link_to.

<%= f.fields_for :photos do |photo_fields| %>
  <% unless photo_fields.object.new_record? %>

    <%= link_to image_tag(photo_fields.object.photo.url(:user_thumbnail)), photo_fields.object.photo.url(:original), class: "fancybox"%>
    <%= photo_fields.check_box :_destroy %> <span> delete  </span>

  <% end %>
<% end %>

If you make the text part of the label for the checkbox, clicking it should toggle the checkbox. For example, change:

<%= photo_fields.check_box :_destroy %> <span> delete  </span>

to:

<label>
  <%= photo_fields.check_box :_destroy %>
  <span> delete  </span>
</label>
