NEWTOWN TOWNSHIP, Pa. (CBS) — Newtown Township Police are asking residents in a Bucks County neighborhood to shelter in place Sunday morning.
In a Facebook post shared just after 8 a.m., the department said residents of the Headley development are being asked to shelter in place. Police have blocked off the intersection at Headley Drive and Newtown-Yardley Road and said all traffic should avoid the area, but did not provide any additional details.
Around 9 a.m., the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office told CBS Philadelphia that police are dealing with a domestic incident that possibly involves an armed person.
