BOISE, Idaho (AP) — The southwest Idaho man arrested in connection with the killings of a former Arizona power company executive, his wife and their adult son has pleaded guilty in an unrelated case involving an altercation with a bicyclist.

The Idaho Statesman reports (http://bit.ly/1MzDnNA) that 22-year-old Adam Dees of Nampa on Tuesday pleaded guilty to disturbing the peace in the Oct. 5 incident where police say he pushed the bicyclist to the ground in Nampa.

A judge suspended a 180-day jail sentence and ordered Dees to pay $1,000 in restitution.

Dees is charged with grand theft and forgery in connection with the killings last month of 80-year-old Theodore M. Welp, 77-year-old Delores E. Welp and their son, 52-year-old Thomas P. Welp.

Dees is being held on $2 million bail in that case.
