Three Men Charged With Attempted Murder After Posing as Police During Pennsylvania Turnpike Shooting Three men face attempted murder charges after police said they impersonated officers, pulled over a family and opened fire during a robbery attempt on the Pennsylvania Turnpike. According to the Pennsylvania State Police, the incident happened around 7:30 p.m. Saturday, March 28. A couple and their child left a relative’s home in Philadelphia. They got into their minivan to head back to their home out of state. While they were driving home, police said their minivan was immediately followed from Philadelphia onto the expressway by two vehicles, a Honda CR-V and a dark Chevrolet Suburban outfitted with police lights. As they drove along the Turnpike in Chester County, the couple reported seeing what appeared to be police lights flashing in their rearview mirror. They pulled over in Tredyffrin Township, believing it was a traffic stop. Police said investigation revealed that 21-year-old Tuften Green, 51-year-old Roberto Morel and 38-year-old Terrell Adams followed the victims and attempted to rob them. Green and Adams utilized red and blue lights while they were driving a Chevrolet Suburban so the victims would pull off the side of the road. According to police, Morel was following the Chevrolet Suburban in another vehicle. Green and Adams approached the Toyota and told the victims they were police officers. When the victims became suspicious, Green shot the driver in the chest. Police say multiple shots were fired at the car as the victims attempted to drive away. The suspects fled the scene following the shooting. Morel and Adams have since been taken into custody and are charged with attempted first-degree murder, impersonating a public servant, conspiracy to commit criminal homicide, aggravated assault, robbery, kidnapping to facilitate a felony and other related offenses. State police said an active arrest warrant has been issued for Green on the same charges. Authorities have not released an update on the condition of the driver.
