FALL RIVER, Mass. >>Jurors in the murder trial of former New England Patriots star Aaron Hernandez have spent about 45 minutes touring his home.

The former NFL player is accused of the 2013 killing of Odin Lloyd, who was dating his fianc?e’s sister.

Jurors were taken on a bus on Friday to several sites in Massachusetts along with a heavy police escort.

Hernandez’s home in North Attleboro is not far from the industrial park where Lloyd’s body was found.

Jurors could be seen getting back on the bus, led there by the judge and court officers, who were holding ceremonial poles that were about 7 feet tall.

Hernandez was not allowed on the tour, but lawyers for both sides attended.
