Heater's Hill shooting

WESTFALL — Following an armed break-in at a Heater’s Hill home Tuesday, Eastern Pike Regional Police arrested Shakeel Waller, 28, of Hawley on assault, burglary, and firearm charges. Police were called to Jennifer Stangl’s home at 11:45 p.m. after a neighbor heard a gunshot and called 9-1-1. Police found a man and a woman, who were not identified, saying two black males wearing ski masks entered the home pointing handguns. One of the guns was fired at a window. The two gunmen fled on foot from the home. Chief Chad Stewart said Waller is alledged to be one of the men. The other is still being sought.
