Bucks County authorities say a man sought for homicide charges and a woman wanted for questioning may be in the region.

Warwick police are seeking Jeffrey Gould, 33, of Bensalem, in connection with the murder of 33-year-old Edward Dubinsky, a former Northampton resident. Gould is believed by police to have fired the shot that killed Dubinsky on the front porch of his home on Virginia Lane in Warwick last week.

Gould’s companion, Zannatul “Asha” Naim, 30, a Perkasie resident who worked in Lower Bucks County, is also being sought for questioning.

Officials released Tuesday that Gould was spotted Monday morning driving a champagne-colored 2001 Chevrolet Silverado with stolen Pennsylvania License YKD-24N just outside of Harrisburg. They believe he may have returned to the Philadelphia area after possibly initially fleeing to North Carolina.

“We have not yet found the gun that killed Ed Dubinsky. We have to assume that Naim and Gould still have it and therefore, we consider them armed and dangerous,” Warwick Police Chief Mark Goldberg told 6abc.

Dubinsky and Naim were in an on-and-off again relationship before the homicide, according to various reports.

The murder weapon is described by investigators as a 9mm Smith & Wesson handgun.

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Gould or Naim is asked to call police at 215-343-0100.
