A 26-year-old Lawrenceville man is set to stand trial in Gwinnett County beginning Monday on murder charges for allegedly firing a shot that killed a 13-year-old boy.
A stray bullet fired into the air by Joshua Simpson Banks pierced the window of Tre Shambry's bedroom and killed Shambry as he was climbing the ladder to his bunkbed. The shooting happened in January 2010 in Holland Park Apartments in Lawrenceville, where Banks also lived.
Banks has been held at the Gwinnett County Detention Center without bond since his arrest in July 2010.
