Police were dispatched for a reported shooting in the 1000 block of Little Mountain Road in Bethel Township at 7 a.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 6, a WFMZ 69 News report states.

Berks County District Attorney John Adams told WFMZ at that time that a homicide investigation was underway. 

"I would call this somewhat of a domestic-burglary type incident, and that is why there's no need for us to charge anyone at this point," Adams said in a WFMZ interview on Thursday, Nov. 7.

The homeowner's son was the homicide victim, and the shooter is cooperating with police, according to WFMZ. Adams said there is no threat to the community.

Daily Voice reached out to the district attorney's office for more details. There was no response at press time on Thursday, Nov. 7.
