His 73-year-old parents were found dead in their Washington Township home on Sunday. Their son was gone along with their car and a credit card.
Investigators recovered two baseball bats and a knife. Officials are awaiting autopsy results.
Todd Warner remains held in Pennsylvania pending an extradition hearing. It’s unknown if he has a lawyer.
