YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) – Jury selection began Tuesday in the trial of a Yuma man accused of murder.

40-year-old Nicholas Harder is charged with murdering 57-year-old Anthony Jordinelli back in May of 2023.

He faces one count of premeditated first-degree murder and four counts of aggravated assault.

The murder allegedly took place at a home east of Somerton, located on Avenue 3E and County 18th Street.

Harder rejected a plea deal in April of last year, and his trial is expected to begin Wednesday once a jury has been finalized.
