ROMULUS, Mich. -- A judge has ordered former Michigan State basketball player Keith Appling to stand trial on a charge of carrying a concealed weapon.
Detroit police say Appling was arrested after officers stopped a fast-moving vehicle in June and saw him place a gun under a seat. Judge Kenneth King on Tuesday made the ruling after testimony from officers. Appling's next court date was set for Aug. 2.
Appling's attorney, Cyril Hall, has said that Appling didn't put the weapon under the seat. WWJ-AM reports that Hall says Tuesday that he's disappointed with the judge's decision.
