WARREN A deadlocked Trumbull County jury could return only a conviction on one felony charge on Wednesday in the trial of a Liberty man accused of shooting his neighbor at a Hadley Avenue apartment complex last summer.
The jury foreman told Common Pleas Judge Ronald J. Rice jurors had reached a verdict on only one charge discharging a firearm into a habitation but could not come to a unanimous decision on the felonious assault charge against Daryl L. Casey, 27.
Jurors began deliberating late Tuesday afternoon and were sent home after 90 minutes. They returned Wednesday morning and discussed the case for two more hours before the verdicts were read. The foreman told the judge she didn’t think more time deliberating would break the deadlock on the felonious assault.

The jury of nine women and three men deliberated for about 90 minutes Wednesday afternoon in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court after getting the case following a full day of testimony. Taking the witness stand was the defendant, Daryl L. Casey, 27.
The jurors are considering whether Casey is not guilty because of a self-defense instruction read by Judge Ronald J. Rice prior to deliberations. Casey is facing two felony charges including two firearm specifications in the shooting of Kavin O. Moore, 33.
