A man accused in a 2002 homicide is scheduled
to go on trial in Pine Bluff tomorrow.
Trava Tillman is charged with capital murder in the death of
23-year-old Derrick Harris, who was shot to death in July of last
year. Tillman has pleaded innocent.
Police say Harris was shot twice while sitting in a vehicle
parked in the back yard of a Pine Bluff house.
The shooting allegedly followed an argument between Tillman and
Harris over a woman that both had a romantic interest in.
Jefferson County Chief Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Kyle Hunter
says the state is NOT seeking the death penalty against Tillman.
