JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) -A jury has convicted a man of attempted murder in the shooting of former Jacksonville Jaguars offensive lineman Richard Collier.

The six-person jury deliberated 2 hours and 45 minutes before returning its verdict against 33-year-old Tyrone Hartsfield at the end of a nine-day trial.

Hartsfield faces up to life in prison. The jury will now be asked to determine if he was also guilty of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

Collier watched much of the closing arguments while seated in his wheelchair in the courtroom gallery. He was shot six times as he waited in his car outside a Jacksonville apartment house last year. Collier was paralyzed and his left leg was amputated.
