(AP) -- GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) - A teen and a 35-year-old man have been arrested in the beating death of a homeless man in Greenville last year.

Thirty-five-year-old Elliott Lamont Adams of Greenville has been charged with murder, as has a 15-year-old whose name has not been released because of his age.

55-year-old Terry Steven White died at Greenville Memorial Hospital on September 2nd, after he was found beaten August 31st.

Greenville County sheriff's Master Deputy Sam Cureton says a deputy got a tip in the case recently.

Cureton says a hearing will be conducted in Family Court to determine if the teen will be tried as an adult.

Deputies have not released a motive in the death.

It was not clear if Adams has an attorney.
