KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — A man accused of running over and killing a 65-year-old woman in a parking lot back in August will be heading to trial.
37-year-old Xuan Thanh Vo was charged with open murder in the death of 65-year-old Sandra Villarreal, in the Walmart parking lot of Osthemo Township on August 9.
According to the autopsy report read in court, her cause of death was from multiple blunt force trauma from multiple lacerations to the head, neck and abdomen.
District Court Judge Tiffany Ankley made the ruling on Thursday, November 10 that there was sufficient evidence to bound the case over to circuit court for trial.
According to court records, Vo had told police he was angry over an ex-girlfriend and consciously made his own decision he wanted to kill someone with his car, and that he also considered killing someone at the Meijer store in Osthemo Township and a Meijer location in Battle Creek.
Vo was declared mentally competent to stand trial in October.
