COLUMBUS, Ga. (WTVM) -- Ricardo Strozier, the man accused of murdering local radio personality Heath Jackson, 25, pled not guilty in Recorders Court Thursday morning to armed robbery, burglary and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime.

Columbus police say Strozier forced his way into a home in the 4200 block of 15th Avenue on Aug 6th, blind-folded and tied up a man, before making off with his belongings.

The judge ordered Strozier held without bond on the armed robbery charge and $50,000 each for burglary and firearm possession.
