Two people have been arrested and another person is being sought for beating Adonis Clinkscale at 1:44 a.m. Sunday, police said.

A policeman on patrol saw three men punching and kicking Clinkscale in the 900 block of Spearman Avenue in Farrell, police said.

Justin E.W. Odem, 18, of 310 Fruit Ave., disagreed with Clinkscale when they were at a house party in the 900 block of Spearman, police said.

Clinkscale, who suffered a broken nose, an eye injury and cuts and bruises, left the party and was attacked from behind by Odem and others, police said.

Odem and a juvenile were arrested at the scene. Odem was charged with aggravated and simple assault and disorderly conduct, police said. A petition was filed in Mercer County Juvenile Court against the youth, police said.

A warrant was obtained against a third person Monday.

Clinkscale was treated at the hospital of Sharon Regional Health System, police said.
