A 14-year-old Bradford County girl killed two weeks ago died of a shotgun wound to the chest, the county coroner’s office announced. Coroner James Bowen ruled the death of Destiny Skye Gross, of Towanda, a homicide, but did not label it as criminal or otherwise in his news release. State police have not announced any arrests.
