6/19/14 - Nearly four years after a former Livingston County man was shot and killed, three suspects are on trial in the case. 53-year-old John Mick of Goodrich was shot to death at the Flint River Village Apartments in August of 2010. Mick, who lived in Brighton for 14 years, had worked as a security guard at the GM Proving Grounds in Milford before retiring to take the security job in Flint. More than two years passed without a break in the case until 22-year-old Floyd Gene Perkins and 21-year-old Kenya Ali Hyatt, were arrested in February of 2011 in connection with another crime in Mt. Morris Township. Flint Police say they were able to obtain information from that case that led to Perkins and Hyatt being charged with felony murder, armed robbery and conspiracy to commit armed robbery by the Genesee County Prosecutor's Office. A third co-defendant, 33-year-old Aaron Williams, was charged in the case last year. A jury was seated Wednesday and opening statements made in the case, which is being tried in Genesee County Circuit Court. (JK)
