ULYSSES, Kan. (AP) _ A judge has determined there is enough evidence to try a southwest Kansas man and his wife with shooting and wounding the man's former boss.

Ramiro Garza Jr. of Ulysses was bound over for trial after a preliminary hearing Thursday in Grant County District Court.

He is charged with criminal discharge of a firearm, aggravated assault, aggravated criminal use of a weapon and criminal possession of a firearm in the shoting of Esequiel Gutierrez.

His wife, Lexy Garza, was bound over for trial on charges of aggravated assault and obstructing official duty. The judge dismissed a third count charging her with criminal discharge of a firearm.

An arraignment hearing for the couple is set for July 7.
