The investigation led police to Langhorne Manor and caused Cairn University to lockdown their campus from 6:30 a.m. until 8:30 a.m. The first classes of the morning were cancelled due to a police search for the two suspects.

Anyone with information on the incident has been asked to Falls Township Detective Dennis O’Connell at 215-302-3308.

The mobile home where Tuesday’s shooting took place was where Keith Dorian Schultz, 48, suffered a “serious” gunshot wound to his left hand in August. Schultz, according to police, shot himself by mistake but lied about being attacked because he was not legally allowed to possess a gun.
