ROSEBURG, Ore. (AP) — A prosecutor in Pacific County, Wash., says the owner of an Oregon-based boat company had been deemed competent to stand trial on a first-degree murder charge.

Deputy prosecutor David Bustamante told the News-Review newspaper of Roseburg that Brian Brush will be arraigned Friday.

Police in the Washington coastal town of Long Beach say Brush shot 45-year-old Lisa Bonney in broad daylight on Sept. 11, during an annual classic car rally that draws thousands of people to the Long Beach Peninsula.

The owner of North River Boats is being held in Pacific County Jail on $5 million bail.

Bonney was his on-again, off-again girlfriend.
