(York) — Authorities say a York man accused of killing his father and stepmother with a sword has told investigators he was off his schizophrenia medication at the time.
Thirty-eight-year-old Levar Fountain is charged with criminal homicide in the slayings of 74-year-old John Fountain and 65-year-old Mary Fountain.
Authorities allege that Fountain killed the victims Thursday night and moved their bodies to the basement. They allege he also killed several dogs, posted a note saying the couple had moved back to Florida and went to his room for three days.
Court documents don’t list a defense attorney; a working number for Fountain couldn’t be found.
