ST. LOUIS—A 70-year-old Missouri man is facing charges in the beating death of his disabled sister—a crime police said the man carried out because he was frustrated about having to care for her.

Medics and officers were called to a home Sunday in an unincorporated part of St. Louis County by Anthony Sokolich, who said his sister was unresponsive, the St. Louis Count Police Department said in a statement Tuesday.
