Forbes jury still out in Boucha assault case
A Minneapolis jury of five women and seven men entered a second day of deliberations in the Dave Forbes aggravated assault trial. The Boston Bruins player is charged with striking Henry Boucha of the Minnesota North Stars with a hockey stick during a Jan. 4 game. The jurors sought guidance on aggravated assault definitions as the case hinged on whether Forbes threatened Boucha and caused a serious injury. Boucha required 25 to 30 stitches for a gash above his right eye and is treated for double vision.
