NEW PLYMOUTH, Idaho — A preliminary hearing for the former New Plymouth Mayor, who police say shot his son in the arm, will be postponed to late January.
At a hearing on Monday, a judge decided that in the meantime, Rick York will be able to remove his ankle monitor. York will also undergo weekly alcohol testing while being required to stay sober.
York was up for reelection in the Nov. 7 election but lost the election to Lisa Binggeli.
York is charged with Aggravated Battery. His preliminary hearing has been pushed back multiple times and has been once again rescheduled. It's currently set for January 30 at 9:00 a.m.
