Dauphin County jurors on Wednesday voted to convict a Swatara Township man for third-degree murder after a three-day trial related to the 2017 death of Zach Myers, 24.
Prosecutors said Andrew Shirk, 44, purchased fentanyl in North Philadelphia that he, Myers and a woman ingested together in a room at the Super 8 Motel parking lot, 4131 Executive Park Drive. Shirk had been living at the motel.
When Myers started showing signs of an overdose, prosecutors say, the pair dragged Myers outside using a blanket and put him in his SUV, where they abandoned him to go to a convenience store and back into the motel room. The pair called police at about 8:15 a.m. Oct 1, 2017, more than four hours after he was left in the vehicle and after the pair got rid of evidence from the room.

Two-way lineman Zach Myers, an Air Force Academy recruit, scored the first offensive touchdown of his career and Connor Groff caught a 1-yard TD pass from his sophomore brother, Dylan, as part of the celebration as Evanston improved to 2-2 on the season.
The Wildkits have one remaining road game - next Friday at Glenbrook South - and a possible crossover game against a Central Suburban League North division opponent is in doubt now because COVID-19 issues on that side of the conference might force a makeup game in the final week to determine their final standings.

This past year has been a challenging one for everyone across the globe. The music industry has been hit especially hard with small venues closing, touring musicians unable to perform and uncertainty around when the concert industry will be able to open back up again. Despite this, musicians are still creating and writing new material and many folks – professional musicians and those who just enjoy playing – have spent time during quarantine devoted to becoming more proficient or learning a new instrument altogether.
