Ryan Mangan’s funeral was scheduled for Monday morning at Sacred Heart Church in Jeannette. He was found fatally shot in his home Feb. 4.
Police have since arrested 16-year-old Maxwell Morton, of Jeannette, and charged him with criminal homicide.
Police say they identified Morton through a selfie he took. They say the picture shows Morton next to Mangan’s body, which authorities found in the same position and condition.
