Double shooting investigation underway in Indian River County; 2 men hospitalized
INDIAN RIVER COUNTY – Two men were hospitalized with gunshot wounds following a shooting at a residence north of Vero Beach, a law enforcement official said.
Both men were taken to Health First's Holmes Regional Medical Center in Melbourne because of the severity of their wounds, said an Indian River County Sheriff's Office spokesperson.
Detectives are working to determine what led to the shooting inside the residence in the 4200 block of 32nd Avenue on May 11, Capt. Joe Abollo said.
The two men were first taken to Cleveland Clinic Indian River Hospital emergency room around 2:30 p.m., which led to the investigation, according to a news release.
A third man who was said to be a person of interest was found near the home and questioned by law enforcement.
The person was initially apprehended by deputies as the suspected shooter, according to the news release, however, Abollo said Monday he was released and was 'cooperating with the investigation.'
As of May 12 he said no one was in custody and there were no suspects, and that the shooting was considered an isolated incident.
A firearm was also recovered at the property as evidence.

Waltham man found guilty of 2020 fatal stabbing on Halloween
A Waltham man has been found guilty of stabbing and killing his former housemate, Kevin Fitzgerald, on Halloween of 2020, according to the Middlesex District Attorney's Office. Jonathan Galindo, 38, was found guilty of second-degree murder and aggravated burglary following a three-week trial that began May 8, the DA's office said in a Friday news release. At 9:14 p.m. Oct. 31, 2020, Fitzgerald, 61, called 911 and told police he had been stabbed in his Waltham home and was dying, officials said. Police found him bleeding but conscious at the threshold of the home, and he told them he had been stabbed by a man wearing a ninja mask. Fitzgerald was brought to the hospital, where he died just after 10 p.m. He was stabbed three times in the chest, shoulder and thigh. An autopsy revealed that the chest wound, which punctured his lung, was fatal. At the home on Alder Street, police found blood, a knife, a fingerprint on the back storm door and a set of footprints in the snow leading to that door, according to the district attorney's office. Four days after Fitzgerald's death, police matched the fingerprint on the storm door to Galindo, who was Fitzgerald's former housemate and had moved out of the apartment that spring. DNA on the handle of the knife also matched Galindo, officials said. On Nov. 7, police received an arrest warrant for Galindo. They also found a black mask in his closet. Location data from Galindo's phone showed him at the Alder Street apartment on the night of Fitzgerald's death, officials said. The phone's internet search history also showed repeated searches for 'Any recent stabbings in Waltham last night?' the following day. A sentencing hearing for Galindo has been scheduled for 2 p.m. on July 15.

Friday's Mini-Report, 6.6.25
Today's edition of quick hits. * I guess returning Kilmar Abrego Garcia to U.S. soil wasn't impossible after all: 'Kilmar Abrego Garcia has been returned to the U.S. to face federal human smuggling charges in Tennessee, the Justice Department said Friday, in a case that became emblematic of the combined coarseness and incompetence behind the Trump administration's immigration crackdown.' * In this 6-3 ruling, all of the Republican-appointed justices sided with the White House: 'A divided Supreme Court on June 6 said Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency can access to the data of millions of Americans kept by the U.S. Social Security Administration. The court paused a judge's order blocking DOGE from getting the data, which includes Social Security numbers, medical and mental health information, tax return information and citizenship records.' * Harvard's winning streak continues, but the White House's relentless offensive is ongoing: 'A federal judge on Thursday temporarily blocked President Donald Trump's efforts to block visas for foreign students planning to attend Harvard, after the Ivy League college filed a legal challenge.' * No one benefits from misguided steps like these: 'More than $12 million worth of contraceptives and HIV-prevention medications purchased by the U.S. government as aid for developing countries under programs thathavesince been discontinued will probably be destroyedunless officials sell or otherwise off-load them, an examination by The Washington Post found.' * The White House vs. the ICC: 'The Trump administration is slapping sanctions on four judges at the International Criminal Court over the tribunal's investigation into alleged war crimes by Israel in its war against Hamas in Gaza and in the West Bank.' * It's not a great sign when no one seems to know who's leading the CDC: 'The CDC, a $9.2 billion-a-year agency tasked with reviewing life-saving vaccines, monitoring diseases and watching for budding threats to Americans' health, is without a clear leader.' * This effort fell short, but it was interesting to see Republicans scramble: 'House Oversight Committee Democrats have once again failed to subpoena Elon Musk to testify on Capitol Hill. The panel rejected the minority party's request Thursday morning for the former DOGE chief to appear before lawmakers in a party-line, 21-20 votes.' * Should we assume that a generous settlement in this civil suit is inevitable? 'Five members of the Proud Boys, once convicted of masterminding the Jan. 6 breach of the U.S. Capitol, are accusing the federal government and FBI employees of violating their rights in connection with their prosecutions in a new lawsuit. ... The suit seeks $100 million in punitive damages.' * A New Jersey health official's recent inspection at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster did not go well: 'For more than three hours, the inspector tallied enough violations — a faulty dishwasher, poorly stocked sinks, improperly stored raw meat — to give the club a score of 32 out of 100, one of the lowest ratings earned by any establishment in Somerset County this year.' * Noted without comment: 'For sale at the White House: one bright red Tesla Model S. Should run fine; the owner just seems to have had buyer's remorse. Less than 24 hours after President Trump and Elon Musk engaged in a rancorous public spat, Mr. Trump has decided to sell the red Tesla he got in March, according to a White House official speaking on condition of anonymity because the person wasn't authorized to speak publicly.' Have a safe weekend. This article was originally published on

Mass. beekeeper killed in crash while working in Ohio
A Southwick man has died after a crash in Ohio, where his beekeeping company was working this week. William Crawford III, 35, the founder of New England Apiaries, was working alongside a road in Oregon, Ohio, around 1:30 a.m. Wednesday when the forklift he was using to help other workers load a company vehicle was struck by a 20-year-old driving a Chevy Silverado pickup truck, local TV news station WTOL reported. He was taken to the hospital and later died. The driver of the truck was wearing a seatbelt and uninjured, according to WTOL, and the crash remains under investigation. Crawford, who was known locally as the creator of Billy C's Raw Honey, told MassLive in 2017 that he had first gotten interested in beekeeping in 2005 at 15 years old, when he took a course offered by a regional beekeeping organization. In addition to the honey, which is sold at Big Y supermarkets and other retailers in the area, New England Apiaries rents out its bee colonies to pollinate crops around the country. Viewing hours will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. and 6 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, June 11 with a funeral service at 10 a.m. Thursday, June 12, both at Full Gospel Church in Westfield.
