A 16-year-old charged in last week's Colorado school shooting that left one student dead and others injured will be tried as an adult, prosecutors say.
A 16-year-old charged in last week's Colorado school shooting that left one student dead and others injured will be tried as an adult, prosecutors said.
During a hearing for Erickson, Douglas County District Attorney George Brauchler said that the investigation into the shooting is ongoing, and requested, at the behest of investigators, that arrest affidavits and a probable cause statement in the case be suppressed from public view for two weeks. Erickson’s defense attorneys said in court that they have yet to see any of the evidence in the case, and waived the requirement for a preliminary hearing within 35 days. Brauchler said that discovery evidence prosecutors now have in their possession would be turned over to Erickson's lawyers later Wednesday.
Witnesses said Erickson allegedly entered a classroom yelling,"Nobody move." But one student, 18-year-old Kendrick Castillo, ignored the order and charged towards Erickson, pinning him against a wall before being fatally shot, witnesses said.
