A homicide defendant will have to wait a day to have his trial begin due to there not being enough jurors on Oct. 4.

Prosecutors told Baltimore Witness they were prepared to start trial today in the case of defendant Isaiah Eaddy, but there were not enough people to select a jury.

Eaddy, 31, is charged with two counts of first-degree murder and having a deadly weapon with the intent to injure in connection to an incident on May 12, 2020.

Baltimore City Circuit Court Judge Melissa M. Phinn scheduled Eaddy’s trial to begin again on Oct. 5 depending on if there are available jurors.
