Dolores Ingram Obituary – The Bucks County District Attorney’s Office and the Northampton Township Police Department have initiated a murder inquiry following the discovery of an 82-year-old woman’s lifeless body in her condominium in the Holland section of Northampton Township on Sunday.
Upon receiving a well-being check request from the Metropolitan D.C. Police Department, local authorities found Dolores Ingram deceased inside her residence on Beacon Hill Drive. Her son, William Michael Ingram, 49, was already in custody in Washington, D.C., for assaulting an officer and damaging a police vehicle. During his arrest, he confessed to several Metro D.C. police officers that he had killed his mother.
Investigators have scheduled an autopsy for Tuesday to determine the cause of death. William Michael Ingram remains detained in Washington, D.C., where he faces charges of car theft. Authorities have stated that additional charges will be filed against him in due course.
After responding to the welfare check call, Northampton police arrived at the Beacon Hill Drive address. They observed blood on a windowsill and further blood smears on the walls, window, and floor from outside the ground-floor condo. The interior of the living room appeared disheveled, with the exception of a collection of clothes, towels/linens, furniture, and other household items piled on the far-right side.
Officers forcibly entered through a locked front door and proceeded to investigate. While moving the couch, one of the officers discovered a cold foot. Upon closer examination, it became evident that the individual showed no signs of life.
On Sunday, the Northampton Police and the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office launched a death investigation and obtained a search warrant. The deceased woman was identified as Dolores Ingram, who appeared to have suffered severe head trauma and was found buried beneath a heap of household items, including furniture.
