Washington City Police have confirmed that authorities have found the stolen black BMW that was used by the suspect who is wanted in a deadly shooting in Washington and another shooting in Donora on Wednesday. Washington Police Sgt. Jack Hancock tells WJPA that the car was found abandoned on Main Street in West Alexander. No further information was available. Police continue their search for 36-year-old Zackory Sadler of Donora (pictured), who is believed to have shot and killed 41-year-old Darnell Steven Brown in the parking lot outside of the Dollar Store on Highland Avenue in Washington around 4:30 p.m. Police said it appears the shooting was targeted. Brown’s girlfriend and her six children, all under the age of 9, were in an SUV at the time of the shooting. According to police, the suspect, 36-year-old Zackory Sadler, and Brown’s girlfriend have a child together. Children of both Sadler and Brown were in the SUV. Brown was shot as he walked out of the dollar store. Police said Sadler was waiting for him and fired at least two rounds from a car, one of which hit Brown in the head. A second shooting was being investigated in Donora on Heslep Avenue, nearly 30 miles away. It happened at the house of an ex-girlfriend of Sadler. A man was shot in the leg and foot. Authorities say the man was flown from the scene around the same time the situation unfolded in Washington. Washington police have charged Sadler with criminal homicide, seven counts of recklessly endangering another person, former convict not to possess a firearm and firearm not to be carried without a license. Police say Sadler has been charged previously with violent crimes.
