Kai Michael Sainz-Stafford appeared at Kidderminster Magistrates Court this morning.
The 24-year-old, of Field Crescent, Shrewsbury, entered the dock wearing a grey sweatshirt, and spoke only to confirm his name, date of birth, and address.
The clerk told him he faces one charge, of murdering Sam Siviter on May 2.
The severity of the alleged offence means that the case can only be dealt with at the crown court, so the matter was committed to Stafford Crown Court, with no pleas entered.
Addressing Sainz-Stafford the clerk said: "That is a matter that can only be dealt with at the crown court and the magistrates will in a moment send the matter to the crown court at Stafford."
The chairman of the bench committed the case to crown court and told Sainz-Stafford he was being remanded in custody pending an appearance at Stafford Crown Court tomorrow - Tuesday, May 6.
