Gordon then shot and killed another person in nearby Morrisville before fleeing to a Dollar General parking lot, authorities said. Gordon knew the victims of the shooting, police said, adding that they believed he had ties to the area around Trenton, New Jersey, about 20 minutes away from the sites of the shootings.
“This is a fluid situation, and we are asking the community to take some precautions,” Middletown Township police said, warning residents to avoid travel to Falls Township until further notice.
