DURHAM -- To the dismay of the dead person's mother, a mistrial was declared Wednesday when jurors could not unanimously decide whether Amir Delon Belvin fatally shot a man and wounded two others outside a Durham nightspot seven years ago.
The mistrial came after jurors indicated they were hopelessly deadlocked at 8-4, in favor of not guilty, on a charge of second-degree murder and 7-5 on two assault charges against Belvin.
The case could be retried if prosecutor Mitchell Garrell chose to do so. He indicated he would confer with his boss, District Attorney Mike Nifong, before making a decision.
