NEW YORK -- Charles Foehner, the man charged after shooting and killing an alleged robber in Queens, was back in court Monday. 

Detectives said Foehner, a 65-year-old retired doorman, fatally shot a man who was trying to rob him at 82nd Avenue and Queens Boulevard in Kew Gardens on May 31

Foehner faces weapons charges after prosecutors said a search of his home revealed he had more than two dozen weapons - including pistols, shotguns and an AK-47 - but was only licensed for five.

Foehner made no comment while leaving court on Monday.
