IDABEL A 31-year-old McCurtain County man was bound over for trial Tuesday on charges of first-degree murder and shooting with intent to kill, District Attorney Rick Stout said.

J.W. Wilson, 39, of Garvin will enter a plea on the felony charges on May 27, Stout said.

Wilson is accused of killing Alfred "Butch" Lee Jr., 31, of County Line, OK, and wounding David Lawrence Gattis, 42, of Killer, Texas, in a wooded area near Garvin March 25.

The district attorney said a motive for the shootings has not been determined.
