Juvenile With Firearm Led To Falls Twp. Shelter-In-Place Order: DA

FALLS TOWNSHIP, PA —A two-hour shelter-in-place order issued in the township late Wednesday night was the result of a "domestic situation," authorities said.

“All we can say on this matter is that it was a domestic situation involving a firearm, and because a juvenile is involved, there is no more information we can release,” Bucks County District Attorney’s Office spokesperson Manuel Gamiz Jr. said.

The Falls Township Police Department confirmed the shelter-in-place order but referred comment on the incident to the District Attorney's Office.

Gamiz said that no shots were fired in the incident.

A heavy police presence was reported Wednesday night into Thursday morning on Village Lane and surrounding streets in the Vermillion Hills neighborhood.
