History

[edit]

On August 28, 2019, three people were found shot to death in a house on Keeling Drive: the suspect's mother, 62; sister, 25; and sister's son, 1. The suspect, 18-year-old Matthew Bernard, was arrested after a chase from police, in which he was running around naked. The 25-year-old woman killed was married to Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Blake Bivens, who was the father of the deceased child.[2]
