A 49-year-old man in Pennsylvania is facing a possible lifetime behind bars for allegedly killing his 53-year-old brother and 74-year-old mother, fatally shooting them inside of the home he shared with the latter victim. Aaron Deshong was taken into custody on Sunday and charged with one count of first-degree murder, one count of third-degree murder, and one count of possessing an instrument of a crime in the slayings of Adam Deshong and Wanda Deshong, authorities announced.

According to a press release from the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office, troopers with the Pennsylvania State Police in Sippack at about 5:02 p.m. on Sept. 24 responded to an emergency call at a home located in the 700 block of Gravel Pike in Perkiomen Township, which is about 27 miles northwest of Philadelphia. Authorities said that an adult male — later identified as Deshong — had placed a call to an FBI Threat Assessment Center and “indicated that he may have hurt his family members.”

Upon arriving at the scene, first responders found Deshong still on the phone with the FBI. He was immediately detained by troopers.

The remaining troopers made entry into the household where they found Aaron Deshong’s mother and brother lying on the floor in the kitchen. Both had suffered what appeared to be fatal gunshot wounds and were pronounced dead on the scene. Investigators recovered a .38-caliber Smith & Wesson revolver from the home that was registered to Aaron Deshong in a downstairs basement bedroom closet. Police said the revolver had four spent shell casings in the cylinder as well as two live rounds.
