Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele and Lansdale Borough Police Chief Michael Trail have announced a joint homicide investigation following a shooting that occurred at Church and Hancock streets in Lansdale Borough on Saturday night.
According to the release, police were dispatched to the scene of a vehicle accident with shots fired at 9:59 p.m. on Nov. 28. Upon arrival, police located a Nissan sedan — driven by 30-year-old Ebony Sequita Pack — which was stopped on a curb at the intersection. Police said the vehicle sustained numerous bullet strikes on the driver’s side door.
Pack sustained multiple gunshot wounds during the incident, including two gunshot wounds to the chest and one to the leg, according to a source with knowledge of the investigation. Pack was transported from the scene via ambulance to Abington-Lansdale Hospital, where she was later pronounced dead.
The Montgomery County Coroner’s Office will perform an autopsy on Monday, the release states.
At the scene of the shooting on Saturday night, multiple neighbors reported hearing upwards of 4-to-6 gunshots in rapid succession, and a source with knowledge of the investigation said a second vehicle that may have been involved in the incident had fled the scene after the shooting.
Citing the ongoing nature of the investigation, Chief Trail could not provide additional information or confirmation, but he described the incident as “very tragic.”
