PITTSBURGH

U.S. Marshals in Pittsburgh have arrested a suspect in the murder of a resident of a Youngstown Metropilitan Housing Authority high rise apartment in Struthers.

WFMJ-TV 21, The Vindicator's broadcast partner, reports that Roy Cleary, 40, was taken into custody Wednesday afternoon at UPMC hospital.

Cleary was wanted for Tuesday's apparent stabbing death of 56-year-old Mark Westfall at the Struthers Manor.

Authorities say Westfall was stabbed several times in the back, abdomen, neck, and arms.

This is a developing story.
