YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - A jury has started deliberating the case of a Youngstown man accused of shooting his girlfriend in the head.
The jury began deliberations just before 11 am Wednesday after hearing evidence in the case of 32-year-old Terrance Edmonds, who is charged with attempted murder, felonious assault, domestic violence, and a weapons violation.
Edmonds was arrested in July after authorities found 32-year-old Denise Thurston slumped over in the driver's seat of a car on Hilton Avenue.
Thurston, the mother of two children, underwent surgery for a gunshot wound to the head.
Last month Edmonds took it upon himself to file a motion to suppress evidence and to dismiss the case against him.
Mahoning County Common Pleas Judge Scott Krichbaum overruled the motions, noting that Edmonds is represented by an attorney and should have had his lawyer file the motions.
The trial began Monday.
