Despite these three arrests made in this case, one suspect remains at large.
Four people have now been charged in the killing of a 31-year-old man who police and the Erie County Coroner said was beaten to death.

“Two of those individuals were in custody up until Thursday morning. Thursday morning our SWAT team conducted an operation and apprehended an individual who was also wanted for this homicide. That brings the total to now three individuals that have been arrested for this homicide, but we are still seeking out one other,” said Rick Lorah, deputy chief of Erie police.
