On December 10, 2022, at about 3 a.m., the Bedford 911 service received an urgent call. According to the Pennsylvania State Police at the Bedford station, Bedford 911 received a call reporting a home invasion and an assault in progress. The call was disconnected.

In California, the 72 year old would have been arrested for murder already.
Not sure how this will play out in Pennsylvania.
An athletic field is across the street. On the other side of the athletic fields for baseball and football is a middle school and a high school.

This will be classified as a ‘school shooting’. Bad guns.
I disagree. IF someone breaks into your house they deserve what they get regardless of circumstances. One more dirt bag out of circulation, if this were encouraged we would have a lot fewer dirt bags who were a lot less bold.
yeah but he managed to knock someone up before that happend.
Pennsylvania Ping!

I worked in a plywood mill, long ago. Some of the guys were putting in forty hour weeks, but doing meth.
