Police: Pittsburgh Man Said he Slept with Gun, Woke to Find Girl Dead
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Authorities say a Pittsburgh man charged in the death of a 3-year-old girl told investigators he was sleeping next to the child with a loaded shotgun under his pillow and awoke to a loud bang and found her dead. Fifty-one-year-old Marlin Pritchard was charged Sunday with criminal homicide, child endangerment and weapons offenses in the death of the girl identified by a medical examiner as Chassity Clancy. Authorities said Pritchard told investigators he slept with the gun due to threats from others. Court documents don’t list a defense attorney; a listed number for Pritchard was busy during repeated calls Sunday.
