West Goshen Wawa Shooting Charges Filed, Escalation Over Marijuana Dispute

WEST CHESTER, PA — More information has been released regarding the Wawa shooting in West Chester. Authorities have charged Frank Johnson, 21, of Coatesville, and Zahir Scott, 18, of Wilmington, Delaware, in connection with the shooting outside a Wawa in West Goshen Township. The incident, which took place on Saturday afternoon, began as a dispute over a trash bag containing marijuana in the parking lot of the convenience store on East Market Street.

Surveillance footage revealed that the altercation quickly escalated into gunfire, with both men shooting at each other before fleeing the scene.

A second weapon, believed to be discarded by Scott, was later recovered by police.
