Police: Young Girl Listed In Critical Condition After Being Shot, Stabbed
BUCKS COUNTY, Pa. (CBS) - Easter weekend turns tragic for the parents of a 14-year-old girl.
They found their daughter apparently shot and stabbed Friday evening in their home on Sycamore Avenue, in Croydon.
"They brought her out on the stretcher and they had just taken her away. The father came up asking, where's my daughter, where's my daughter and the detective took him away," a neighbor told CBS3's Chantee Lans.
Bristol Township police say at the time her 19-year-old cousin who also lived at the house was missing. He was later found several miles away in Bensalem by police in a wooded area off State Road.
