A Superior Court judge on Tuesday ordered star Memphis hoops recruit Mikey Williams to stand trial on six felony gun charges.
Judge Sherry M. Thompson-Taylor scheduled Williams' arraignment for Oct. 24. She denied the prosecution's request to increase Williams' bail to $500,000. Williams has been free on a $50,000 bond since his arrest April 13.
He is accused in a March 27 shooting at his home in unincorporated Jamul in eastern San Diego County. An argument just before midnight ended with gunshots being fired at a car that was leaving the house with five passengers inside it, the San Diego County Sheriff's Department said in a news release. Bullets hit the car, but nobody inside was injured, authorities said.
Williams, wearing a black suit, black mock turtleneck and white sneakers, sat with his attorney, Troy P. Owens, during the hearing. Thompson-Taylor said that while no witnesses saw Williams fire a gun, there is probable cause to move the case forward based on testimony that witnesses saw him with a gun and heard him threaten to kill them.
