Pike County Man Indicted For Murder of His Own Mother

A Pike County man has been indicted for murder in connection with the death of his mother in October.

This week a Pike County Grand Jury indicted Alex Yuhas on one count of murder as well as two counts of terroristic threatening and one count assault in the October 14 death of Paulette Mullins and ensuing police standoff at a home on Old Wagner Station Road.

Prosecutors allege Yuhas made threats toward officers during the standoff which lasted several hours.

Yuhas has not yet been arraigned.
