Prosecutor: Young couple slain by 3 teens who took safe
PENN RUN (AP) – Three teens have been jailed on charges they killed a young couple while robbing their rural Western Pennsylvania home and taking a safe.
Twenty-six-year-old Timothy Gardner and 20-year-old Jacqueline Brink were found slain in their Cherryhill Township home early Thursday.
Indiana County District Attorney Patrick Dougherty says the investigation is ongoing and the cause of the victims’ deaths wasn’t immediately released.
State police have charged 18-year-old Nathaniel Price, of Indiana, Pennsylvania, and two teens from Clymer, 19-year-old Justin Stevenson and 18-year-old Isaiah Scott, with criminal homicide and robbery.
All three remained jailed without bond and online court records don’t list attorneys for Price and Stevenson. Scott’s attorney declined comment Friday.
Scott is charged as an adult and faces a preliminary hearing along with the others Nov. 8.
