Courtney McCoy and Dorian Johnson, both 21, are accused of being involved in a stabbing that left a 22-year-old Ann Arbor man fighting for his life. The man lived across the hall from McCoy, who allegedly had Johnson come over early on Sept. 9 to confront the man.
McCoy and Johnson were in court for a pretrial hearing Thursday, which was adjourned until 1:30 p.m. Nov. 29, according to court records. Both are currently at the Washtenaw County Jail, according to court records.
According to police, McCoy and Johnson knocked on the 22-year-old’s door in the early morning hours, waking him so he would come to the door. Police said McCoy was upset about a disagreement that occurred a month before. The man was stabbed in the stomach in the hallway of the apartment building in the 400 block of South First Street.

If convicted, they both face a maximum of life in prison.
