MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — A Monongalia County circuit judge agreed to move a murder trial to September during a court hearing Monday.

Lemir Baker-Moore remains in jail without bail.

Judge Russell Clawges rescheduled the trial of Lemir Baker-Moore.

Baker-Moore, 22, of Morgantown, was arrested last August following the shooting death of Brian Green near the Dollar General Store on High Street in Morgantown.
