FARRELL, Pa. — An 18-year-old Sharon man is charged with Mercer County's only homicide last year.

Police say Brian Burks was arrested Saturday near Pittsburgh after eluding authorities since the Dec. 15 shooting in Farrell. Burks was arraigned Monday in Farrell on a homicide charge.

Police say Burks and 21-year-old Prince Butler were visiting a house in December when the two men began fighting and Burks shot Butler twice.
