Former basketball star Keith Appling and his girlfriend are set to be arraigned via Zoom Thursday in Detroit's 36th District Court.
Appling faces charges on one count of first-degree murder, one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm, and two counts of felony firearm, said Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy.
According to police, Appling fatally shot his relative multiple times on May 22 after an argument over a handgun and fled the scene with the help of his 28-year-old girlfriend — who is facing charges on one count of accessory after the fact and one count of lying to a police officer.
