Homicide detectives are searching for a 56-year-old man in connection with a double shooting that left a woman dead Wednesday in Juniata.
Deiby Rivera Gonzalez is wanted for killing, which also left a man in critical condition, police said Thursday. Investigators characterized the motive as domestic in nature.
Officers were called just after 9:15 a.m. Wednesday to the 1500 block of E. Luzerne Street, where they found a man and a woman with gunshot wounds, according to authorities.
Jaylisa Quinones-Pinet, 33, had been shot multiple times in her torso, law enforcement said. She was rushed to Temple University Hospital and died a short time later, the PPD added.
The 38-year-old male victim was also shot several times and hospitalized with serious injuries, according to investigators. Police reported finding seven spent shell casings at the scene.
Rivera Gonzalez is described as being a 5-foot 9-inch man with a stocky build. He was last seen driving a maroon 2017 Toyota Highlander. Anyone with information is asked to contact the PPD’s Homicide Unit at 215-686-3334 or call or text the department’s tip line at 215-686-TIPS (8477).
