On October 14, 2019, 81-year-old Mor Hang of Dorris, California, was killed in a double homicide in the Pleasant Valley Highlands area near the Oregon–California border. Deputies responding to a possible robbery and shooting on Hilltop Road found two women with gunshot wounds; Hang was pronounced dead at the scene. The other victim, 49-year-old Rosey Vang of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, was taken to a local fire station and later died of her wounds. Autopsies determined both deaths were caused by one or more gunshot wounds and ruled homicides.

The Siskiyou County Sheriff’s Office Major Crimes Unit has conducted numerous interviews and re-interviews of people who were in the area and has collected physical evidence, but no suspects have been identified and the motive remains unclear. Authorities have said they do not believe the attack was random and have asked anyone with information to come forward.

If anyone was in the Pleasant Valley Highlands or on Hilltop Road the morning of October 14, 2019, or has information about either victim’s activities that day, please contact the Sheriff’s Office.
