CARSON CITY, Nev. (KRNV & MyNews4.com) -- A 21-year-old man has been ordered to stand trial in the 2011 heroin-related death of a woman in Carson City.
Judge John Tatro ruled Friday that there was sufficient evidence to bind Angel Altamirano over to Carson City District Court on a second-degree murder charge.
The Nevada Appeal reports Altamirano is accused of giving or selling heroin to 23-year-old Brittany Rubke in October 2011.
According to court documents, she had an adverse reaction that led to her death at a Reno hospital, but it's unknown whether she overdosed or not.
