Warwick Township, Pa.
An 18-year-old Pennsylvania man was arrested this week after allegedly killing his 14-year-old girlfriend’s parents after an argument over her curfew. The girl’s 13-year-old sister reportedly told police she saw the suspect, David Ludwig, shoot her father once in the head, and heard a second shot as she ran to hide in a bathroom. She said Ludwig then ran through the house calling for her sister, 14-year-old Kara Beth Borden. The two fled, and police said the girl might have been kidnapped. Police caught Ludwig 600 miles away, near Indianapolis, when he crashed his red car into a tree as police chased him.
