(KNZA)--The preliminary hearing for a 25-year-old Troy man charged in the August shooting death of another 25-year-old man has been postponed again.
The hearing for Eric Burge, which had been set for Thursday, was continued to February 6th.
Burge is charged with second-degree murder in connection with the death of Matthew Sollars. In addition, he faces charges of unlawful discharge of a firearm in an occupied dwelling and hosting a party that included minors.
Sollars, a native of Leavenworth, died August 13th, one day after the shooting at a rural residence southwest of Troy.
Burge was arrested in October following an investigation by the Doniphan County Sheriff’s Department and Kansas Bureau of Investigation.
He remains in the Doniphan County Jail on $500,000 bond.
