ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Michael Buie, 53, pleaded not guilty Thursday morning in the murder that occurred on Manor Parkway on March 9.

According to police, Jemell Allen, 35, was at a home on Manor Parkway with friends and family, Buie being one of them.

Police said Allen and Buie began arguing, which ended in Buie shooting Allen in the back of the head. Police said on Wednesday that Buie turned himself into the Public Safety Building alongside an attorney.

Buie was charged with murder in the second-degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the second and third degrees.

His criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree charge is due to the fact Buie has two prior convictions, one of them being in Federal Court for being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm, police said.

Buie is being held without bail or parole and his preliminary hearing is scheduled for March 18.
