MORRISON — The trial date for a Rock Falls man accused of stabbing another man to death on Valentine’s Day has been delayed until May.
Kyle Cooper was to stand trial April 8 for the Feb. 14 stabbing death of Daniel Gordon; however, that date was pushed until May 13 on Friday based on the prosecution’s request for more time.
Cooper, 36, is charged with first-degree murder and two counts of aggravated battery in connection with 27-year-old Gordon’s death.
