(KNZA)--The preliminary hearing for a Bendena man facing allegations of dog fighting following a raid on his Doniphan County property has been pushed back.

The hearing for 28-year-old Colton Albright was continued Thursday to October 10.

During the hearing, a judge will determine if there is sufficient evidence for Albright to be bound over for trial.

He faces 20 counts—including 10 counts of dogfighting, three counts of possession of dog fighting paraphernalia and one count of cruelty to animals, along with drug and weapon related charges.

Albright was arrested August 16 after Kansas Bureau of Investigation agents, assisted by the Doniphan County Sheriff’s Office, served a search warrant at his residence.

Seized were 45 dogs believed to have been used for dogfighting, along with suspected dogfighting paraphernalia.

Albright remains in the Doniphan County Jail, held without bond.
