A man accused of attempting to kill another man in the City of Butler last year will have one final court appearance before the start of his trial.
36-year-old Samuel Lopez of Butler is accused of attempting to kill 32-year-old Jose Rodriguez-Hernandez in the 300 block of East Pearl Street in February 2024.
Police used witness testimony and DNA evidence to connect Lopez to the crime. Lopez allegedly asked Rodriguez-Hernandez for money but when Lopez was denied, he shot Rodriguez-Hernandez in the face.
He will appear in a Butler County Courtroom tomorrow; he was denied bail and has been held in the Butler County Prison since he was charged in June last year.
Lopez has been charged with Criminal attempt (homicide), aggravated assault, tamper with/fabricate with physical evidence, and recklessly endangering another person.
