14-Year-Old Dies After Being Shot, Stabbed In Bucks Co.

The 14-year-old girl who was shot and stabbed multiple times in her Bucks County home during an assault Friday night has died of her injuries, the Bucks County District Attorney has confirmed.

The girl was pronounced dead at 10:05 a.m. Monday at St. Christopher's Hospital in Philadelphia, where she had been admitted in "extremely" critical condition after the assault in Bristol Township.

The investigation into the girl's death is ongoing, and no charges have been filed. Authorities have not yet released her name but she has been identified in media reports as Autumn Bartle. An online fundraising campaign has been launched to pay for funeral expenses.

The girl's 20-year-old cousin, who lived with her, was found nearby with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the throat.

According to authorities, the victim's parents returned to their home on Sycamore Avenue shortly after 6:30 p.m. Friday to find her seriously injured. Her cousin was not there when they arrived home but he was subsequently found on State Road in Bensalem with the self-inflicted wound. He has been hospitalized and is currently in stable condition.

Police are asking for the public's help to gather more information on this incident.
