RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) — A Rapid City man accused of killing a 6-month-old girl is undergoing a mental health evaluation.

Twenty-six-year-old Kristopher Houchin is charged with second-degree murder in the June 2015 death of L'Naya White. Authorities allege Houchin was baby-sitting the girl when she died.

The results of Houchin's evaluation are expected sometime next month. His trial is tentatively scheduled for mid-November. He remains jailed on $50,000 bond.
