A man accused of murder and attempted murder has made his first court appearance.

23 year-old Kyle Alexander Goodrich said nothing in court this morning.

He was sporting a large bruise on his right cheek.

So far police in Prince Albert have said little about the case, other than that the alleged incident occurred on Saturday.

The legal-aid lawyer for Goodrich requested that a bail report be drawn up.

The judge agreed and set the matter over until Friday.

Goodrich remains in custody.
