The trial of a 39-year-old homicide defendant who murdered a volunteer firefighter had his trial rescheduled until November on Feb. 1 before Baltimore City Circuit Court Judge Melissa Phinn.  

Daniel Greene is charged with first-degree murder, home invasion, use of a firearm during a violent crime, and having a handgun on his person in connection to an incident on Nov. 29, 2017. 

Trial was postponed due to the suspension of jury selection with the rise of COVID-19 cases. 

According to the Baltimore Sun, on Nov. 29, 2017 officers were called to the 1800 block of E. Pratt Street for reports of shots being fired. They found 31-year-old Jon Hickey suffering from a gunshot in his home. 

Greene was represented by defense attorney Warren Brown. 

The defendant’s case was rescheduled for reception court at a later time to see if any senior judges are available for trial later in the year. 

Greene’s next hearing is scheduled for May 2.
