GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — A 26-year-old man has pleaded not guilty in the fatal shooting of a woman at a park near the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay.

WBAY-TV reports Percy Sims appeared in Brown County court on Tuesday. He is charged with first-degree intentional homicide, armed robbery and possession of a firearm by a felon.

Sims is accused of killing 39-year-old Krystal Torres-Smith, a mother of three. Her body was found in a parked SUV at Communiversity Park on June 8.

According to the complaint, Sims set up a meeting with Torres-Smith to buy two ounces of marijuana. According to investigators, he was planning to rob her, but realized she knew too many of the same people he knew.

Sims is due back in court Jan. 11. A judge ordered bond continued at $1 million.
