KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — A 29-year-old man charged in the death of a Kansas City, Kansas, police detective made his first court appearance in Kansas.

Curtis Ayers is charged with capital murder in the May 9 death of Det. Brad Lancaster. Ayers is accused of fleeing to Missouri in a car after Lancaster was shot.

Kansas City, Missouri, police shot and wounded Ayers before taking him into custody. He had been hospitalized until June 20th when he was returned to Kansas to face the charges.

Ayers appeared Friday in Wyandotte County court, where he waived his right to a preliminary hearing within 10 days. He wasn’t required to enter a plea. His next court date is July 20. Prosecutors say they anticipate filing additional charges.
