PHILADELPHIA—The suspect in a Philadelphia shooting last summer who had been deemed mentally incompetent is headed to trial after his lawyers told a judge he has been undergoing treatment and is prepared to move forward with the case.

Kimbrady Carriker, 41, is charged with five counts of murder, as well as attempted murder, aggravated assault, and illegal gun possession in the apparently random shootings in early July in the working class neighborhood of Kingsessing.
