33-year-old Tony Lee Foster was bound over for trial during a preliminary hearing Tuesday.

He has pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder and criminal possession of a firearm by a convicted felon in the death of 35-year-old David William Payne.

Officers responded in July to a report of a shooting at a home in the northern part of the city. Payne was rushed to a hospital, where he later died.

A jury trial is set to begin March 11.
