A man who authorities say fatally shot a caseworker at a hospital complex near Philadelphia and was then shot by his psychiatrist remains listed in critical condition.

District Attorney Jack Whelan said Richard Plotts would be arraigned on a murder charge if he survived the night following Thursday's shooting.

Prosecutors did not return calls Friday morning on the status of the case.

Authorities are trying to determine more about the relationship between Dr. Lee Silverman and Plotts, including whether the doctor had reason to fear him and why he had a gun.
