PHOENIX - A US judge on Monday ordered the man charged in a January shooting rampage in Arizona, Jared Lee Loughner, to undergo a mental evaluation in Missouri to see if he is competent to stand trial.
Prosecutors earlier this month asked for Loughner to receive an evaluation.
Loughner is accused of firing on US Representative Gabrielle Giffords and a crowd of her constituents at a gathering at a Tucson, Arizona, supermarket.
