After Killing Several people at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh. Robert Bowers is accused of driving to the synagogue in October of 2018 and opening fire on worshipers. Prosecutors say he was armed with an assault rifle, then exchanged gunfire with a SWAT team before officers wounded Bowers and took him into custody.
Legal wrangling prevented the case from going to trial sooner. Bowers could face the death penalty if the jury convicts him. That trial is expected to last several weeks.
