HAZLETON, Pa. — The suspect in the murder of a convenience store worker will likely head to trial.
A judge says there is enough evidence to send Jafet Rodriguez to trial for the murder of Ashokkumar Patel.
According to investigators, Rodriguez walked into Craig's Food Mart in Hazleton in December, pushed Patel into a closet, and shot him in the head.
Authorities say he got away with more than $1,400.
Patel was able to crawl across the floor to get his cell phone and call 911 before passing away.
