A Pittsburgh man accused of running over the husband of his ex-girlfriend, killing him, has been ordered to stand trial.

Thirty-five-year-old Bethel Park resident, Jason Kasper, was held on charges of homicide and homicide by vehicle. A charge of homicide by vehicle while under the influence was dropped.

According to police, Kasper dated Tracy Pavlick after she separated from 49 year-old John Pavlick last year. The couple reconciled and police say Kasper went to the Pavlick residence on November 1 after seeing the two of them at a Halloween party.

Police say Kasper drove his car onto John Pavlick, crushing him. Kasper told police that Pavlick jumped onto the hood of his car.

Patrick Thomassey, Kasper’s attorney, says it was an unfortunate accident fueled by alcohol.
