Officials say Kaliah Dearing, 16, and Natasha Harner, 24, were shot and killed at their home on Logan Street in Harrisburg late last week.

Police spent a few hours last week canvassing the area and talking with neighbors.

The shooting occurred Thursday evening in the 2200 block of Logan Street, which is near 3rd and Maclay streets. source

Officers responded to the home after reports of someone having a heart problem, but when they arrived, they discovered that two individuals were deceased from apparent gunshot wounds.

Neighbors said the two victims were women, but police would not confirm any identifying information about the victims or a suspect in the case.
