A Feb. 23 preliminary hearing has been set for a young man charged with attempted murder and assault of a couple who were attacked at an airport parking lot.
Alberto Moreno Jauregui, 18, appeared before a San Diego Superior Court judge on Jan. 26 to confirm the hearing date.
Jauregui is also charged with attempted kidnapping, attempted carjacking and two counts of assault with a deadly weapon in the Oct. 28, 2017 incident near the San Diego International Airport.
Jauregui is accused of grabbing the woman around the neck and demanding the couple’s car keys. Her husband intervened and was stabbed several times before the suspect ran off around 5 p.m.
The stabbing victim was seriously injured and taken to a hospital where he was treated for several days before being released.
Jauregui has pleaded not guilty to all charges and remains in jail on $1 million bail. He was arrested Nov. 6, 2017.
