Deliberations to continue in 'lobster wars' trial
March 11, 2010 17:25 EST
ROCKLAND, Maine (AP) -- Jurors have been sent home for the day without reaching a verdict in the trial of a Maine lobsterman charged with shooting a fellow lobsterman in a feud over lobster traps.
Sixty-eight-year-old Vance Bunker is charged with elevated aggravated assault and other charges for shooting 44-year-old Christopher Young in the neck on a wharf on remote Matinicus Island last July. Bunker's daughter, Janan Miller, is also on trial for reckless conduct for her role in the shooting.
Bunker testified Thursday that he shot Young because he felt his and his daughter's lives were at risk in a struggle over his daughter's shotgun.
Jurors deliberated for three hours on Thursday before being sent home for the night. Deliberations will resume Friday morning.
