Fatal shooting near Port Murray shocks town
A quarrel Sunday near the canal at Port Murray left Hubert Beatt fatally shot by an Italian suspect James Olney, a worker at National Fireproofing Co. Beatt was found by a companion, collapsed after saying I believe I am shot, and died at home. Justice Beatty issued a warrant for Orway, who fled the Italian colony nearby. The case follows a string of past altercations involving Scott Wes.
