Chester County Man Arrested For Murder of Grandmother

A Chester County man has been arrested on the charge that he murdered his own grandmother.

According to Chester County District Attorney, Kevin Havalow, 23, has been arrested on charges that he killed his 81-year-old grandmother, Aleen Watters, at 2:30 a.m. on January 19, at their home in Lower Oxford.

Havalow is also accused of attempting to rape his mother and grandmother. He has been charged with first-degree murder, attempted rape and related offenses.

According to prosecutors, the crime took place after Havalow, who had been smoking marijuana, returned home with a friend, asking if the friend could stay the night. When his mother refused, he then attacked his mother, dragged her to the ground, and sexually assaulted her.

Havalow then, according to the complaint, turned his attention to Watters, sexually assaulting her as well and then stabbing her more than 20 times.

Pennsylvania State Police then arrived and took Havalow into custody.
