After nearly three years, a trial began this morning for a man accused of killing a McKeesport police officer.
Opening statements wrapped up this morning in the case against Jonathan Morris. He’s accused of killing officer Sean Sluganski in 2023.
Morris allegedly opened fire on Sluganski and his partner, Chuck Thomas, while they were responding to a domestic dispute at his mother’s home. His mom had told police that Morris, a former Marine, was suffering from a PTSD episode.
Thomas was shot, but survived.
Channel 11 reporter Gabriella DeLuca was in court all day. She’ll explain the latest developments tonight at 5 p.m.
