'I'm scared he is going to find me': PFA reveals new details in Mount Joy shooting

B.Lee6 hr ago

A PFA filed against an Altoona man by his ex-girlfriend is revealing new details about what led up to her being killed and her family members being shot.

According to a PFA , 19-year-old Gabriella Morgan had filed a PFA against 22-year-old Ricky Shannon on Nov. 7, just days after he initially filed one against her.

The court filing stated that on the morning of Nov. 4, Morgan and Shannon had gotten into an argument where Shannon allegedly would not let her leave his home.

After Morgan eventually got out of Shannon's house, he is alleged in the PFA to have told Morgan that he hoped she would "get molested and jumped."

Morgan also stated in her PFA that Shannon called her family trash.

After this fight, Morgan traveled to her family in Mount Joy while Shannon apparently called her non-stop.

She then told this to Mount Joy Borough Police and stated that she had about 40 missed calls from Shannon within the nearly 3 hour trip from Altoona to Mount Joy.

Morgan also said that Shannon had hacked into her email, Facebook, Instagram, and PlaySatation accounts and was "scared" that he was "going to find [her] and hurt [her]," after he joked about "cutting body parts" off of her.

Pennsylvania State Police during a press conference about the shootings on Friday confirmed that Shannon drove to the Sassafras Terrace apartments where Morgan and her family were staying hours after he was notified of the PFA Morgan filed against him the day before.

He then entered the apartment and shot three of Morgan's family members and killed one of them, Kimberly Day, in the process.

Shannon and Morgan were later found dead in Shannon's pickup truck on Rt. 147 after he shot at Troopers and they fired back.

CBS 21 is waiting to hear back from the Dauphin County Coroner on their autopsy results.
