PHOENIX (AP) - The suspect in a deadly Arizona shooting is being held without bail.
Jared Loughner entered a Phoenix courtroom Monday handcuffed and wearing a tan inmate uniform. His head is shaved and he has a cut on his right temple.
The 22-year-old is accused of killing six people on Saturday and injuring 14 others, including U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.
His expression was impassive as he walked in, looked straight at the crowd at the back of the room packed with reporters, then turned around to speak to his attorney, Judy Clarke.
He responded "yes" when asked if he understood his rights.
The courtroom was under heavy guard with about a dozen U.S. marshals.
Loughner's mug shot was also released Monday by Pima County, where the shootings happened. He's smiling in the photo.
