Man sentenced to prison in murder of Cedar City resident

A man has been sentenced to prison for murdering a Cedar City resident. 30 year old Mark Mair appeared in 5th District Court in Cedar City Tuesday where he was sentenced to serve 15 years to life for first-degree felony murder and another 15 years to life for attempted aggravated murder stemming from the death of Justin Hanna.

According to charging documents, Mair went to a residence in a Cedar City trailer park in the early morning hours of July 24, 2016, and pushed in a fan sitting in a bedroom window.

Police say he then leaned through the window and began firing a gun toward Hanna and Mair’s ex-girlfriend, who had been in a bed together.

Hanna was shot three times before he stumbled into the front room of the home and collapsed from his wounds. He died at the residence a short time later.
