PHOENIX (AP) — Jurors in the case of an Arizona rancher charged with fatally shooting a migrant on his property visited the scene of the killing as the third week of the trial wrapped up. The jurors on Thursday viewed various locations at the ranch, as well as a section of the U.S.-Mexico border. Seventy-five-year-old George Alan Kelly is charged with second-degree murder of a Mexican man on his property. Kelly has said he fired warning shots in the air and didn’t shoot directly at anyone. The judge overseeing the trial says he will ensure the case goes to jurors on Thursday.
