BOSTON (AP) — A Boston cleric and former public high school employee already facing an attempted murder charge for allegedly shooting a 17-year-old student in the head has pleaded not guilty to gun and drug charges.

A judge Tuesday bumped bail for the Rev. Shaun Harrison by $150,000 to a total of $400,000 following his arraignment on two counts of unlawful possession of a firearm and single counts of trafficking in cocaine, and other charges.

The gun and drug charges came after a search of the 55-year-old Harrison’s home. Police found two guns and drugs in a safe in his basement.
