KTVU Report: Mehserle trial will be moved to either LA or San Diego
The murder trial of BART police officer Johannes Mehserle will take place in either Los Angeles or San Diego, reported KTVU, exclusively, on its "10 O'clock News" Wednesday night.
An Alameda county judge granted Mehserle's defense lawyers a change of venue, ruling it would be unlikely that Mehserle could get a fair trial in Alameda county.
Mehserle was arrested in the New Year's Day shooting of Oscar Grant, a 22-year-old supermarket worker from Hayward who was lying facedown after being pulled off a BART train by police investigating a fight.
