The man charged with the shooting deaths of two people in early May at a Lansing Rite-Aid and at the 1800 block of Coolidge road will continue to a preliminary examination on Friday.
Ricard Taylor, 34, appeared in court today via teleconference before East Lansing 54B District Court Judge Richard Ball, who said Taylor would be brought to court on Friday, the first time he will physically appear in court.
Taylor, a former employee at MSU and East Lansing street musician, was found competent to stand trial earlier this month and is facing a total of seven felony charges, including two counts of open murder.
Two people died as a result of the shootings, including Ghana native Michael Addo, a 35-year-old Rite Aid pharmacist, and 27-year-old Lansing resident Jordan Rogers.
