BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) -- The trial of Jonathan Knight, accused of killing 5-year-old boy Kason Guyton during a car-to-car shooting in 2017, resumed Tuesday. 17 News will live blog the proceedings. Last week, attorneys presented opening statements. Jonathan Knight, file image Prosecutor Eric Smith said the shooting stemmed from an altercation between rival gangs hours earlier.
