A 14-year-old Great Bend boy is facing a first-degree murder charge in the death of a teenage girl.
The body of 14-year-old Rubi Perez was found on April 9th near a city park in Great Bend. The juvenile suspect in the case was arrested soon after and was formally charged with first-degree murder earlier this week. A detention hearing has been scheduled for Tuesday. The suspect's name has not been released due to his age.
