Andre Gordon Jr., accused of triple homicide in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, in March has been ordered to face trial.
He is Charged with the Murders of his Stepmother, Teen sister, and the Mother of his Children
The events began on March 16 in Trenton, New Jersey, where Gordon allegedly carjacked a woman and stole her vehicle. He then drove to Bucks County, arriving just before 9 a.m. Falls Township police responded to a shooting report on Viewpoint Lane in Levittown, according to the crime report of ABC 6.
Doorbell footage showed Gordon confronting his father outside before breaking into the house by kicking the door and using a rifle to break the glass. Inside, he began “hunting the residents,” according to Detective Tim Fuhrmann.
Gordon is accused of fatally shooting his stepmother, 52-year-old Karen Gordon and his 13-year-old sister, Kera Gordon, inside the home. Three other people, including another 13-year-old, were present during the incident.
Later, police responded to Edgewood Lane in Levittown, where Gordon allegedly shot and killed 25-year-old Taylor Daniel, the mother of his two children. Both children were home during the shooting.
Gordon also allegedly bludgeoned Daniel’s mother with his rifle before fleeing. He then carjacked another driver in Morrisville, who was unharmed.
Gordon fled back to Trenton, leading to a barricade situation. He was captured around 5:30 p.m., ending the violent spree.
