HOLLIDAYSBURG Second-degree murder and related criminal charges against a 16-year-old Altoona male involved in a fatal shooting were moved Wednesday to Blair County Juvenile Court, prompting the district attorney’s office to immediately file notice of an appeal with the state Superior Court.
President Judge Elizabeth Doyle, in a partial order made available to attorneys Wednesday, granted a petition filed on behalf of Damien Green of Altoona, seeking to have his criminal charges transferred out of adult court. Green is one of four teenagers charged in the Feb. 25, 2020, fatal shooting death of 15-year-old Devon Pfirsching of Altoona.
