Closing arguments are scheduled to begin this morning in the trial of two cousins.

Courtney Lewis, 26, and Aaron Lewis 23, have both pleaded not guilty to aggravated assault.

31-year old Ryan Turcotte of Barrie was beaten and knocked to the ground on June 26, 2012 after he got off a bus returning from a night out at the Kee to Bala.

The incident was captured on a cell phone camera and was played in court.

Once the crown and defense finish summations, the case will be in the hands of the jury.
