Saddiq Washington, of Darby, is charged with first-degree murder in the death of 54-year-old King Hua. Hua, a township resident, and his wife were traveling on State Road near Meetinghouse Lane around 8:43 a.m. on June 29 when the female driver of a vehicle passed them on the shoulder.The vehicle then stopped and Washington, who was a passenger in the car, partially got out and fired shots at the victim's Toyota, said Stollsteimer.
The bullets went through the windshield and hit Hua. He was taken to the hospital but died from his injuries."Although it was her son's actions that led to this heartbreaking tragedy, we cannot ignore Amanda Washington's actions.
