Jury selection began today in the 2008 death of Pampa man.

Juan Daniel Cano, 28, is accused of murder in the Sept. 27, 2008 shooting of 19-year-old Carlos Hernandez.

Police responded about 1:15 a.m. to a shooting in a mobile home park in the 400 block of Perry Street, where they found Hernandez on the floor with a gunshot wound to the head, authorities said.

Paramedics transported Hernandez to a  hospital, but he died two days later. Investigators at the scene recovered a .22-caliber rifle they believe was used in the shooting.
