Man To Stand Trial For Fortuneteller's Murder

LOS ANGELES (AP) ― A man accused of killing a Hollywood fortuneteller with a homemade fire bomb has been ordered to stand trial.

Frank Siganoff faces felony charges of murder, arson and causing a fatal explosion, after a Los Angeles Superior Court judge on Tuesday found sufficient evidence for a trial.

Prosecutors say they have not decided whether to pursue the death penalty against the 25-year-old.

Police say Siganoff threw a Molotov cocktail into the business of 57-year-old Rose Marco on Sept. 3, 2007, killing the fortuneteller.

They say the attack was prompted by a dispute between two Gypsy families.

Siganoff surrendered in April in Phoenix after his case was featured on the television show "America's Most Wanted."

His arraignment is scheduled for Oct. 21.
