A man appeared in court Tuesday in connection with the shooting death of Anthony Minor last week in St. Joseph.

Raydel Cespedes is charged in Buchanan County with a first-degree class-C felony charge of involuntary manslaughter in connection with Minor’s death.

As we reported, court documents stated Cespedes was in a verbal argument with the victim outside of the residence located at 2010 Edmond Street, then went inside his home and got a gun and returned to the front door. Det. Greg Ogdahl said while holding the gun Cespedes again began to argue with the victim then shot the unarmed victim at least one time while the victim was standing outside of the residence.

Cespedes appeared Tuesday for an arraignment in front of Judge Rebecca Spencer. A preliminary hearing in the case has been scheduled for Aug. 24.

Cespedes remains behind bars in the Buchanan County Jail on $50,000 bond.
