(Jeannette, PA) — Police in western Pennsylvania say they have arrested a 16-year-old boy for murder after he posted a picture of himself with a dead classmate. Authorities in Jeannette, Pennsylvania, about 30 miles east of Pittsburgh, say 16-year-old Maxwell Morton shot Ryan Mangan in the face. They say the boy took a selfie with Mangan’s body and used the phone app SnapChat to send the picture to a friend. He saved the picture and showed it to his mother, who called the police. Investigators say Morton eventually confessed to killing Mangan.
