Two suspects in the shooting at a funeral in Brighton Heights in October have been held for trial.

At a hearing on Friday, the prosecution shared new video that they said shows 16-year-old Hezekiah Nixon and 19-year-old Shawn Davis.


In the video that was played in court, the prosecution alleges that Nixon and Davis cased the church about 20 to 30 minutes before the alleged shooting.

Cameras show that they eventually crossed the street and open fire.

The defense argued that you cannot tell who the people are that did the shooting outside the funeral.

They say they have their faces covered said defense attorney Casey White.

"The individuals who did the shooting are covered in all black, dressed in all black and they are unidentifiable," explained White.

There will be a formal arraignment sometime in March.
