Kevin McSwiggen was released from a hospital and sent to the Allegheny County Jail where a judge denied bail.

Police say McSwiggen shot and killed Charles Stipetich outside his parents' home in Blawnox last Sunday after a road rage incident on Route 28.

McSwiggen is facing a charge of criminal homicide and was arrested previously this year for an assault incident.
