A Bucks County grand jury has cleared a Philadelphia man in connection with a deadly shooting last year in the parking lot of a Bensalem, Pa. convenience store.

The grand jury report finds that 25-year-old Randy Dillon was clearly defending himself when he was attacked by eight teens outside the Wawa store on Route 1, in the early morning hours of Easter Sunday, 2005.

District attorney Diane Gibbons says the teens had been drinking at a hotel across the street before assaulting Dillon, who was legally allowed to carry the gun he used.  She outlines the grand jury's additional findings:

"That the eight individuals in the parking lot -- including Matthew Taylor, the deceased; including Alex Ryzinski, who was shot in the parking lot -- are not the victims of any crime.  That members of that group were the physical aggressors.”

The grand jury found that Dillon fired three warning shots and the attackers still didn’t back off.  The report finds that the shot that killed Taylor was fired while Dillon was on the ground being punched and kicked.

 DA Gibbons adds that she intends to pursue charges in connection with the underage drinking.
