(KNZA)--Jury trials are set this fall for three Atchison men charged in a fatal 2019 Doniphan County fight.
Matthew “ Cole” Scherer, Brian Spilman, Jr., and Scott Vandeloo are charged with second-degree murder in the beating death of 42-year-old Jason Pantle, of Cummings.
Authorities allege the trio engaged in altercations with Pantle during a September 22, 2019 party in southern Doniphan County. Pantle died later at a Kansas City hospital after suffering what investigators called serious head injuries.
The jury trial for Spilman is scheduled to begin September 28. His trial had been scheduled for this week, but was continued.
Vandeloo's trial is set to begin October 19 and Scherer's on November 29.
Vandeloo remains held in the Doniphan County Jail without bond, while Scherer and Spilman remain free on bond.
