An Iredell County Superior Court is scheduled to hear additional testimony on today in the trial of Austin Ray Harmon, the Statesville man charged with causing a crash that claimed the lives of three people and seriously injured three others.
The group was traveling in a golf cart on Fort Dobbs Road around 9:30 p.m., when the golf cart collided with a Honda Accord operated by Harmon, according to trial testimony.
26-year-old Harmon is charged with three counts of felony death by motor vehicle, three counts of serious injury by motor vehicle, DWI and reckless driving.
During the first two days of the trial, Assistant District Attorney Mikko Red Arrow called 10 witnesses to the stand, including seven first responders who have testified about the chaotic crash scene and efforts to treat the injured patients.
The defense team will have an opportunity to cross-examine Mills when the trial resumes This morning.
Before sending the jury home on Thursday afternoon, Judge Thomas Lock advised the jury of seven men and five women — and two male alternates — that testimony in the case would be completed this week. The panel will begin deliberations after closing arguments by the attorneys.
