Roger Peter Lynch

Deadly force

Around 8:30 p.m., troopers responded for reports of a shooting. As they responded, Roger Lynch left. One man, 28-year-old William Effner, was shot. A trooper spotted Lynch's other along State Route 28 when he pulled into his driveway and shot at the troopers. Lynch then barricaded himself inside his residence. Troopers, who were not injured, spoke with Lynch during the overnight and early morning hours. Lynch then appeared on the porch of his home at around 7 a.m., and he allegedly pointed the weapon in the direction of troopers, who shot and killed Lynch.
