Jennifer Causey Troch, a 41-year-old White woman, was found with a gunshot wound to the head inside a burning home at 2 North Main Street in Stewartstown, Pennsylvania, on the morning of August 3, 2025. Fire crews forced entry after being dispatched around 6 a.m., located Troch and 54-year-old Michael Shores Jr. on the second floor, and both were rushed to WellSpan York Hospital where they were pronounced dead within minutes of each other. The York County Coroner later confirmed both died from gunshot wounds to the head rather than from the fire.

Investigators from the Southern Regional Police Department and the Pennsylvania State Police Fire Marshal opened an arson investigation focused on the circa-1905 structure, which had housed a bank and later the Stewartstown Library before becoming a private residence and sustained heavy damage. Officials described the incident as isolated and linked to activities within the residence, and said there was no ongoing threat to the public. As of the latest autopsy updates on August 4, authorities had not announced any arrests or identified any suspects, and the coroner said further details would be withheld while the probe continues.

Did anyone in the community know Troch or have information about activity at that North Main Street residence in the days before August 3?
