BEECH CREEK — A man faces multiple charges involving attempted homicide of law enforcement officers following a shooting in Beech Creek Borough on Tuesday night.

At about 8:50 p.m. on Tuesday night, troopers from state police’s Lamar barracks were attempting to serve a felony warrant to Brandon Bitner at 2476 Eagle Valley Road, Bald Eagle Township when Bitner fired a round with a shotgun at the officers, according to a report released Wednesday morning.

As troopers retreated to their vehicles, Bitner fled the scene in his vehicle and, following a brief pursuit, he pulled into Lykens Market along Main Street in Beech Creek.

“Bitner fired multiple shots from a shotgun towards the gas pumps and troopers. Gun fire was exchanged between Bitner and the troopers,” the release said. “Bitner was wounded and sustained non-life-threatening gunshot injuries.”

Bitner received medical aid and was transferred to UPMC Williamsport for further treatment, the release said.

No law enforcement or bystanders were injured during the exchange.

The release noted all involved troopers were placed on administrative leave pending a complete and thorough joint investigation with Clinton County District Attorney Dave Strouse’s office.

Bitner is facing charges including three counts of attempted criminal homicide of law enforcement officers along with other criminal charges approved by Strouse’s office.

An investigation into the incident is ongoing, with information to be released as it becomes available, the release said.
