A homeless Pennsylvania man faces murder, burglary, assault and other charges after allegedly killing three people and stealing two vehicles before a standoff with police.
A Fallsington, Pennsylvania homeless man who allegedly killed three people in his home state before fleeing across state lines into New Jersey now faces serious charges, including murder and gun-related crimes, in both states.
Andre Gordon Jr., 26, is accused of shooting and killing his 52-year-old stepmother, Karen Gordon, and 13-year-old sister, Kera Gordon, inside a Falls Township home on Saturday morning. At the time of the shooting, there were three other people inside the home who were able to hide from the alleged gunman.
He then went to another home in the area and allegedly shot and killed 25-year-old Taylor Daniel, who was the mother of his two children. Four others inside the home survived.
One of the survivors, Daniel’s mother, was injured when she was bludgeoned by his gun but is expected to survive, according to Bucks County District Attorney Jennifer Schorn.
Officers with the Falls Township Police Department were dispatched to reports of a shooting on Viewpoint Lane in Levittown, Pennsylvania, at about 8:50 a.m. When investigators arrived, they learned Gordon allegedly shot and killed his stepmother and sister, who lived at the residence.
Just after 9 a.m., Gordon went to the second location on Edgewood Lane, where he allegedly shot and killed Taylor, before fleeing the scene.
