The man accused of attacking a Southern California shul fired only eight to 10 of the roughly 60 bullets he had before his weapon jammed, prosecutors said, Fox reports.
John T. Earnest, 19, pleaded not guilty to charges of murder and attempted murder in the shooting at the Chabad of Poway. One woman, Lori Kaye, was killed and three people wounded.
Earnest was arrested shortly after the attack with 50 unfired bullets, a tactical vest and helmet, prosecutors said during his arraignment.
The judge scheduled a status hearing for May 30 and denied bail, calling Earnest an extreme threat to public safety.

Researchers at Tel Aviv University have discovered that a drug used to treat multiple sclerosis may help epilepsy patients.
Published in the scientific journal Neuron, the findings of Professor Inna Slutsky of the university’s faculty of medicine and school of neuroscience center around the mechanism that regulates neural activity.
The team found that the DHODH gene is key to triggering neural activity, and that the drug Terflunomide—used to treat multiple sclerosis—inhibited such activity. The reduction in neural activity became permanent when brain cells were exposed to the drug for long periods of time.
Now, researchers say they believe that their findings will help develop drugs focusing on neural stability.
