Colorado School Shooting Hearing

GOLDEN, Colo. (AP) – A preliminary hearing for a man accused of

shooting two students at a Colorado middle school has been

postponed to give defense attorneys more time to review evidence.

Public defenders for Bruco Strong Eagle Eastwood said Tuesday

they were reviewing 2,000 documents, including copies of his

journals. A new hearing date was scheduled April 28.

Eastwood is accused of opening fire Feb. 23 outside Deer Creek

Middle School, not far from the site of the deadly 1999 shootings

at Columbine High School. Two students were wounded before teachers

tackled Eastwood.

Tuesday’s hearing was to consider whether there is enough

evidence against Eastwood for the case to proceed. Eastwood is

being held on $1 million bail.
