Three people were injured in a shootout — one fatally — that, officials believe, happened in Levittown on Saturday night. <\/p>\n
According to the Middletown Township Police Department, officers were dispatched to a home along Quickset Road in the Quincy Hollow section of Levittown at about 10:33 p.m. on Saturday after a report of an armed individual. <\/p>\n
That call, police said, was quickly upgraded to a report of shots fired at that scene.<\/p>\n
First responders, police said, found a man suffering from a gunshot wound lying in the ground outside of a home at that scene. <\/p>\n
Officers began life saving efforts, however the man was pronounced dead at the scene, officials said. <\/p>\n
Inside the home, officers discovered a woman suffering from a head wound and a man who had been shot in the torso and leg. <\/p>\n
Both victims inside the home were taken to a nearby hospital and, officials said, they are expected to survive their injuries. <\/p>\n
Officials said all three of the people involved in this incident knew each other and the two men were both armed and exchanged gunfire through the course of this incident. <\/p>\n
However, officials did not provide further identifying information, nor did they detail what may have led to the shooting or say if anyone else may have been involved — though police noted that they didn’t believe there was any ongoing threat to the community following this incident.<\/p>\n
Police said a search warrant has been executed at the house and an investigation into this incident is ongoing. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Three people were injured in a shootout — one fatally — that, officials believe, happened in Levittown on…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":62603,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5132],"tags":[5229,7984,1448,2830,1311,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-62602","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-philadelphia","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-bucks-county","10":"tag-pa","11":"tag-pennsylvania","12":"tag-philadelphia","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-united-states-of-america","15":"tag-unitedstates","16":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","17":"tag-us","18":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114846759152686820","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62602","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=62602"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62602\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/62603"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=62602"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=62602"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=62602"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
