Partial verdict reached in Castroneves tax trial

MIAMI (AP) — A federal jury reached a partial verdict Thursday in the tax evasion trial of Brazilian race car driver and "Dancing With The Stars" champ Helio Castroneves, but was hung up on several counts.

Federal Judge Donald Graham said he would not immediately read the verdicts on two tax evasion counts against Castroneves and told jurors to continue deliberating on four other tax evasion counts and one conspiracy count. The jurors left without taking further action at the end of their fifth day of deliberations. They were expected to return Friday to continue deliberating.

Castroneves, 33, is charged with conspiring with his sister and lawyer to evade more than $2.3 million in U.S. income taxes.
