26-year-old Brandon Brown died Saturday night from injuries he sustained from an apparent beating early the morning of September 16th in McPherson.
Police have arrested a 19-year-old Alton Franklin, of Dallas TX, in connection with Brown’s death. The orginal charges of aggravated battery that Franklin was arrested on Saturday were amended Monday to aiding and abetting in 2nd degree murder. Bond is now a half million dollars.
