Murder charges have been filed against a 20-year-old St Joseph man in connection with the fatal shooting of his cousin Saturday night. Commander Jim Connors of the St Joseph Police Department identifies the victim as 24-year-old Derrick A Mauzey.

Connors says the pair were staying at the same apartment at 701 North Ninth Street.  Investigators believe the pair got into an argument over money and the suspect shot Mauzey.

The suspect, Kyle N. Funk remains in custody under $100 thousand bond in the Buchanan County Jail.  Funk is already facing misdemeanor assault charges from an incident in late December of last year.  He was free on bond in that case at the time of the homicide.
