Lancaster slaying victims identified


LANCASTER (AP) — Police in south-central Pennsylvania have released the names of two men who were shot dead half a block away from each other.

Lancaster police haven’t said whether the killings of 28-year-old Anthony Swaydis and 38-year-old Hector Ortiz Fuentes are related. Both were killed early Tuesday morning in shootings reported about 45 minutes apart.

Lancaster is about 60 miles west of Philadelphia.
