Murder Charged Against Burzan in Butte Killing
An information charging Mike Burzan with the murder of Philip Prija was filed in Judge Lynch’s district court. Burzan waived the reading, posted a $15,000 bond secured by property, and will enter a plea next Saturday. The sensational case began when Burzan allegedly shot Prija near the Arizona pool hall, then surrendered to the sheriff. The coroner declined an inquest. Also noted: a separate charge of grand larceny against Wirley was dismissed on request, after a hearing.
