A Mercer County teenager who is accused of killing another teenager will be tried as an adult.
Trenton Easterling, 17, is accused with two others in the death of 17-year-old Tristan Cole.
Easterling was previously indicted by a grand jury for murder and robbery.

An attorney for Easterling told the Advocate Messenger that it is very rare for a teen to be tried as an adult.
Cole was killed in April and his body was discovered inside of a vehicle. Authorities say he had been shot multiple times.
Both Zachary Lay and Megan Sims also face charges in his death.
