GRAND RAPIDS (WOOD-AM) - The deadlock continues for jurors in former Grand Rapids officer Christopher Schurr's second-degree murder trial.

Schurr fatally shot Patrick Lyoya in April 2022 during a traffic stop and struggle over a taser.

Defense attorney Matthew Borgula said it's not unusual for juries to be out for two or three days and he's not reading anything into how long it's taking the jury to make a decision.

Jurors can find Schurr guilty of second-degree murder, voluntary manslaughter, or acquit him.

Jury deliberations are scheduled to resume later this morning.
