Feud Over Fatal Shooting Tangles Prija and Burzan
The shooting of Philip Prija by Mike Burzan after a prolonged family feud allegedly dating from their native land occurred at 2 20 PM when Burzan left a pool room owned by cousin Sam S Burzan and fired four shots into Prija. County Attorney Bourquin asked Coroner Carey not to hold an inquest, citing savings to the county, and an information charging Burzan with murder will be filed Saturday. Funeral plans hinge on relatives’ replies, and a denial was issued regarding Burzan owning the pool hall.
