TL;DR Summary

Andrew Lester, the suspect in the shooting of 16-year-old Ralph Yarl, entered a plea of 'not guilty' for first-degree assault and armed criminal action charges. Yarl was shot after going to the wrong house to pick up his siblings. Lester and his attorney waived a formal reading of the charges, and the court continued the case to June 1. Yarl's family attorney is calling for an investigation into federal hate crime charges. The case remains an active investigation, and officials are asking for anyone with information to contact law enforcement.
