A Donora man is being accused of attempted homicide after allegedly beating another man severely on Wednesday. 

Jerimiah White, 18, of Liberty Avenue is charged with criminal attempt – criminal homicide, aggravated assault, terroristic threats, simple assault, disorderly conduct and recklessly endangering another person. 

Police said Nick Sandy called them to report that his son, Ethen Sandy, 18, had been assaulted and sent police a video of the incident that allegedly shows White repeatedly hitting and kicking Ethen Sandy on various areas of his body.

After the assault, Ethen Sandy was taken by his mother, Tiffany, to a Med Express to be evaluated.
