Two Dead in Murder Suicide Incident

Titusville Police Department Posted on May 13, 2022

Titusville Police are investigating the shooting deaths of two local residents that occurred at approximately 7 AM on Thursday, May 12, 2022.

 

Officers responded to a report of shots fired at a home on the 4000 block of Lakeview Hills Avenue and subsequently secured the scene.

 

Officers located Haley Friedel, 24, of Titusville, in the driveway inside a vehicle with apparent fatal gunshot wounds. Gregory DePietro, 32, of Titusville, was located close to the vehicle on the home’s lawn with an apparent gunshot wound.

 

DePietro was transported to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries where he was pronounced deceased at approximately 10:15 AM. 

 

The preliminary investigation revealed DePietro arrived at Friedel’s residence, parked his vehicle directly behind Friedel’s vehicle and approached the driver’s side of her locked vehicle. He then fired multiple gunshots into the driver’s side window striking Friedel multiple times, then immediately turned the gun on himself and fired.

 

DePietro and Friedel were known to each other.

 

This incident remains an ongoing investigation by the Titusville Police Department and more details will be released upon its conclusion
