A man charged in the disappearance of a missing Alabama college student is due in court for a hearing that could reveal some evidence about the case.
Court records show a Lee County judge has scheduled a preliminary hearing for next Wednesday for 29-year-old Ibraheem Yazeed. His lawyers requested the appearance.
The hearing could reveal some of the evidence authorities have gathered about the disappearance of 19-year-old Aniah Blanchard, the stepdaughter of UFC fighter Walt Harris.
Yazeed is charged with kidnapping in Blanchard’s alleged abduction.
Court records show authorities allege he was at a gas station where Blanchard was last seen on Oct. 23 in Auburn.
Documents show a large amount of Blanchard’s blood was later found in her car, but searchers haven’t found the college student.
