Synagogue suspect appears in US court in wheelchair

Robert Bowers, the suspect charged with slaughtering 11 people at a Pittsburgh synagogue in the worst anti-Semitic attack in US history, appeared in court Monday for the first time, in a wheelchair. The 46-year-old, pasty faced and balding, made little comment during the three-minute hearing other than to respond "Yes" and "Yes Sir" to procedural questions from the federal judge. Bowers was taken into custody on Saturday after being wounded in a shootout with police and transferred to hospital.
