LITTLESTOWN, Pa. — Authorities say a father and daughter have been found dead in a central Pennsylvania home in what is being investigated as a possible murder-suicide.
Sgt. Robert Funt of the Littlestown police department in Adams County told PennLive.com that the shooting occurred just before 3 a.m. Sunday.
Funt said a woman with a gunshot wound to her shoulder met officers outside. Inside, officers found the body of her husband and their 9-year-old daughter.
Police said the mother was taken to York Hospital, where she was listed in satisfactory condition. Autopsies on the deceased are scheduled Tuesday at Lehigh Valley Medical Center.
Officials haven’t yet released the names of those involved. The case remains under investigation.
