The case for the man accused of intentionally running over a Muslim family in London has been adjourned to next week.

The 20 year old suspect appeared in court virtually today to face four counts of first degree murder and one count of attempted murder.

The suspect, who hasn't entered a plea yet, said he's still in the process of getting a lawyer.

On Sunday, 46 year old Salman Afzaal, his wife Madiha Afzaal, their 15 year old daughter Yumna Afzaal and her grandmother Talat Afzaal were killed after being run over by a pickup truck.

Nine year old Fayez Afzaal was the only survivor.

The suspect is due back in court on June 14th.
