KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — MLive reported Tuesday that the suspect charged with shooting two people and killing one at the Hidden Hills apartment in Kalamazoo last fall will be standing trial.
This comes after the suspect, 20-year-old Ja’Shaun Markee Jones, was charged in Kalamazoo County District Court last month.
In the early morning hours of Saturday, October 17, police responded to the 4200 block of Hidden Hills Drive on a report of shots fired.
Upon arrival, officers found the victim, Rachel Curl, suffering from a gunshot wound. She was transported to Bronson Methodist Hospital, where she later died. Curl, 20, originally from Benton Harbor, was a student attending Kalamazoo Valley Community College.
Jones has been charged with her death, but he is also facing a charge of assault with intent to murder 19-year-old Mattalis Buchanan Jr. during an altercation that occurred earlier that night.
According to the report from MLive, Jones now faces eight felony counts, and his case has been bound over to court as of Wednesday.
He currently remains at the Kalamazoo County Jail with no bond.
