06/22/08) PORT JEFFERSON STATION - An 18-year-old is charged in the fatal shooting of his younger brother Saturday in their Port Jefferson Station home. Police say Sean Clark called 911 around 11 p.m. saying that he accidentally shot his 17-year-old brother, Brian. When officers arrived, they found Brian dead from a gun shot wound to the face. Sean was arrested and charged with second-degree manslaughter. Investigators spent Sunday removing evidence from the Clark home to determine whether the shooting was accidental or intentional. The victim's distraught friends say the brothers didn't have any easy life. Their father died two months ago and they have had little contact with their mother. Some of the victim's friends say the suspect was especially troubled, describing him as always having a drink in his hand. According to friends, Brian was a great friend whose MySpace.com page listed the things he liked: Girls, guns, music and the Marines. CORRECTION BY BRIAN'S MOM: Brian's father died one year earlier on 5/31/07
