The murder trial of a St. Peter man in Fayette County has been delayed until the middle of the year.

 

The trial of 25-year-old Alexander Beccue had been scheduled to start this Monday.

Beccue faces two counts of murder in the shooting death of Joshua Smith of Ramsey early on August 11, 2017. 

Beccue's trial is now scheduled to begin on June 17. In the meantime, a hearing on a defense motion to suppress information in the case was moved to March 6. It had been scheduled for Wednesday.

Beccue is being held in Fayette County Jail in Vandalia under $1 million bond.
