GRAVES COUNTY, Ky. - The trial of a man charged with intentionally setting a deadly fire in 2009 is expected to begin again today in Graves County.

Cole Ross was tried last September for intentionally setting fire to Keith Colston's home in Mayfield back in October 2009.

After 3 days of testimony, that trial resulted in a hung jury.

During the first trial, Colston's wife said that her and her husband allowed Ross to live with them because he was going through a rough time.

Ross claimed he was out looking for his girlfriend at the time of the fire, and couldn't have started it.
