Teen competent for trial in great-grandmother's death

SHEBOYGAN, Wis. (AP) - A judge has ruled a 13-year-old Sheboygan boy is competent to stand trial in the killing of his great-grandmother in September.
 
Judge Timothy Van Akkeren found Antonio Barbeau competent Friday, based on a court-ordered mental health evaluation.
 
The Sheboygan Press reports Barbeau's attorney, who requested the evaluation, did not challenge the ruling.
 
Barbeau and a 13-year-old friend, Nathan Paape, are charged with first-degree intentional homicide for allegedly bludgeoning to death 78-year-old Barbara Olson at her Sheboygan Falls home on Sept. 17 with a hammer and hatchet. The boys are accused of ransacking Olson's house and stealing money to buy marijuana and pizza.
 
Attorneys for Paape did not seek a competency evaluation.
 
The case now moves to a January hearing on whether to move the case to juvenile court.
