Two adults and child killed in apparent ‘terrible case of domestic violence’ in Brighton
BRIGHTON, N.Y. — Two adults and a child were killed in what Brighton’s police chief said appears like a “terrible case of domestic violence” on Friday.
Two people were found inside a home on Hollyvale Drive off Winton Road and one was found outside bleeding out. Chief David Catholidi said all of them died from gunshot wounds.
Brighton Police responded around noon after getting a call about someone bleeding on a front porch. First responders took the woman to the hospital where she died.
In addition to Brighton Police, the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office and New York State Police were also at the scene. Catholidi said his department called for additional help because the scene was quickly evolving.
“We didn’t know what we had when we first arrived. It was evolving and unfolding very rapidly and we just wanted to make sure that there was no threat to the community.”
Catholdi confirmed that there is no threat to the community. MCSO has brought in the drone unit to collect evidence. Hollyvale Drive is shut down until further notice.
