Montana Man Faces Four Counts Of Murder

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — A man suspected of killing four people at a Montana bar faces four counts of murder. Defendant Michael Paul Brown lived next door to The Owl Bar in Anaconda, Montana, where a bartender and three patrons were shot and killed Aug. 1. He evaded capture for a week in the nearby mountains and is now being held on $2 million bond. A state court website on Saturday detailed the charges he faces. The case previously had been sealed by a state judge. Authorities have not commented on a potential motive for the 45-year-old former soldier. A niece says Brown long struggled with mental illness.
