After several hours of delay, 25-year-old Harold Travis, Jr. was led into a side door at the Trumbull County Courthouse Monday afternoon to begin jury selection for his trial.

Travis is charged with kidnapping, felonious assault, extortion and having weapons under disability.

Prosecutors say the charges stem from two separate incidents in Warren, one in 2015 where they say he beat his wife and held her captive for two weeks at a home on Elm Road.

The second was in 2016, where they say he and his father held two people captive.

Opening statements are expected to begin on Tuesday.
