The 27-year-old man charged with murder in the fatal shooting death of revered Oakland college football coach John Beam made his first appearance in court on Tuesday and was ordered to remain in jail without bail.

Cedric Irving Jr, who does not have a criminal record, was charged with murder and use of a gun during the crime, the Alameda county district attorney, Ursula Jones Dickson, said at a news conference. He did not enter a plea on Tuesday and is scheduled to do so at a hearing on 16 December.
