EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — An Oregon man has been charged with beating his brother-in-law to death with a baseball bat in Nevada and his sister is being held as a material witness.
Prosecutors in Nevada said 25-year-old Timothy Morgan of Eugene has been charged with murder after his brother-in-law Eric Preimesberger, of Reno, Nev., was reported missing in May.
Morgan’s sister, 30-year-old Kristi Preimesberger, was being held as a material witness. No charges have been filed against her.
Prosecutors in Washoe County, Nev., told The Register-Guard in Eugene that Morgan and his sister were being held at a Minnesota jail pending extradition to Nevada.
