GLYNN COUNTY, Ga. — The trial of a Cobb County man accused of intentionally leaving his son inside a hot car to die will resume Tuesday.
Ross Harris is on trial for the death of his 22-month-old son, Cooper, on June 18, 2014.
The trial was moved earlier this year from Cobb County to Brunswick, Georgia, to find an impartial jury.
The trial began Oct. 3.

Lawyers made it through opening statements and a handful of witnesses before the trial was postponed because of Hurricane Matthew.
Judge Mary Staley on Wednesday canceled court Thursday and Friday as Matthew moved toward the U.S. The trial was scheduled to resume at 9 a.m. Monday.
Matthew hit just off the coast of Brunswick Friday evening. The hurricane left a trail of damage, including flooding and downed trees, which left many people without power. %
