CEDAR CITY, Utah (AP) — A 28-year-old Utah man accused of fatally shooting another man at a Cedar City trailer park in July 2016 has pleaded not guilty to aggravated murder and several other charges.
The (St. George Spectrum) reports Mark Mair of West Valley entered the plea Tuesday in district court in Iron County in connection with the killing of 34-year-old Justin Hannah.

He's also accused of aggravated burglary and seven weapons charges.
