Trial now set for Nov. 7 in Young suit

A judge today set Nov. 7 as the trial date for the remainder of the lawsuit filed by the mother of Sgt. Cornel Young Jr., the black off-duty Providence policeman killed by two white on-duty officers in January 2000. The trial had been scheduled to start Nov. 1, but U.S. District Judge William E. Smith issued an order today, setting the new date. Jury selection will start on Monday, Oct. 24.
