Police: Shooter who killed two in Upper Southampton may have acted in self-defense
Jo Ciavaglia, Bucks County Courier Times
Preliminary evidence suggests an unidentified Bucks County man was acting in self-defense when he shot and killed two men and injured a third outside a popular Upper Southampton bar late Friday night, according to police.The police investigation into the fatal shooting is continuing and no decision on criminal charges is expected until later this week, lead investigator Upper Southampton Detective James Schirmer said on Monday.
Autopsy results released Tuesday show that Steven A. Panebianco, 30, of Bensalem, sustained gunshot wounds to the right thigh and torso and Raymond A. Farrell IV, 28, of Philadelphia, sustained “multiple” gunshot wounds.
The Bucks County Coroner’s Office listed the manner of death as homicide, noting those deaths are classified as at the hands of another person.
Surveillance video of the parking lot for the Steam Food and Pub in the 600 block of Second Street Pike captured the entire incident and clearly shows what happened prior to the shooting, which occurred around 11:30 p.m., Schirmer said.
The video shows a confrontation that escalated into a physical assault and culminated in gunshots, Schirmer said. He declined to say if the alleged shooter was injured.

Caleb Stultz, Louisville Courier Journal
A man was shot and killed inside a Southern Indiana Walmart late Monday night after he charged at Clarksville Police officers with a machete, according to Indiana State Police.Sometime after 11 p.m., after the store had closed, employees at the Clarksville Walmart found a man walking around the store who was bleeding from lacerations on his neck, according to ISP Sgt. Carey Huls. The man – later identified by Huls as 30-year-old Daniel Francis Scott – is believed to have been in the store since about 8 p.m.
The employees contacted police, who were already in the parking lot outside due to an unrelated incident. According to Huls, Scott pulled out a machete knife and ran at officers when they came in to talk to him. An officer shot Scott at that time, Huls said.
