The man who was charged in the killing of two Black shoppers at a Louisville, Kentucky, Kroger grocery store last fall has been ruled incompetent to stand trial.
In a ruling last Thursday, Jefferson Circuit Judge Annie O’Connell found that Gregory A. Bush is not currently competent to stand trial.

But the judge said she suspects that this could change so she scheduled a follow-up competency hearing for July 24, according to The Louisville Courier-Journal.
Bush, who is white, was charged with a federal hate crime and faces double charges each of murder and wanton endangerment and one charge of attempted murder after he allegedly shot and killed Maurice Stallard, 69, and Vickie Lee Jones, 67, on Oct. 24.
