Charges were dismissed earlier against Shelton’s co-defendant, 31-year-old Robert Thomas. Prosecutors have said they will seek capital punishment in the event of a first-degree murder conviction.

Crews responded to a house fire in Ambridge early this morning. Quick work by firefighters prevented serious damage to the home on Maplewood Avenue. The fire started in the basement of the home next to the furnace. After putting out the fire, which consisted more of smoke than flames, firefighters aired out the home with fans. Two people who were inside the home at the time were able to get out safely without injury.
Some say it’s more maddening than March.
