UPDATE:
Police continue to search for the killer of a 19-year-old Adams County woman, who was shot early Friday morning in Gettysburg. It appears she may have been involved in a love triangle.
We spoke with some people who knew Shiphod Brown. Word on the street is that she was involved in a love triangle and someone in that love triangle may have killed her.
Police interviewed possible witnesses to a murder Friday evening at Breckenridge and South Washington Streets in Gettysburg.
That's where 19-year-old Shiphod Brown was gunned down. People who knew her say she was a nice person.
"I used to see her when she was a little girl,” explained Macrina Pierrotte. “I used to see her walking up the street she was quiet, lady like, you know?"
"She was young and a pretty girl," recalled Brad Pittinger.
Brad saw Brown many times. “I work at the 7-eleven downtown here and she worked at the Dollar Store, she came into our place almost every day," Pittinger told CBS 21.
He says hours before her murder, he believes brown was having some sort of an argument with her boyfriend and his other girlfriend.
“I heard it was a boyfriend, girlfriend thing. And I've heard a couple twists to the story today, I really don't know what's going on,” Pittinger added.
Brad told us that police did go into the 7-eleven where he works asking for surveillance video.
It's possible whoever killed Brown may have been inside that store just before the murder.
