Five people were killed in a slay-suicide horror on a quiet cul-de-sac in Nassau County on Sunday — days after the family’s matriarch died and kin were set to sell the house, cops and sources said.
All of the victims were shot to death in the tiny blue home on Wyoming Court in Syosset, while the gunman killed himself on the front lawn, Newsday said.
“The mom just died, and they were selling the house,” said Mary Macaluso, a local real-estate agent, noting she was supposed to meet the relatives at the home around noon — but that authorities had closed the street by the time she arrived.
“The kids were all here for the funeral, and they asked me to come to look at the house,’’ Macaluso told the outlet.
She said one of the children had asked her to meet with the family so they’d know what to do before listing the home, which was estimated at being worth nearly $900,000 on Zillow.
They wanted it done quickly, too, because two of the family members had come up from Florida for the funeral and were headed back soon, she said.
The homeowner, identified through public records as Theresa Martha DeLucia, died early last week at the age of 95, according to her obituary.
“It appears to be a murder-suicide,” Patrick Ryder, the commissioner of the Nassau County Police Department, told Newsday at the scene.
“We do know that the subject on the front lawn did shoot and kill himself.”
NOW HOW ARE YOU GOING TO FIND ANYTHING OUT….WHY WERE THEY ARGUING…
Too many unhinged and dangerous democrats in NY. Maybe the whole state needs to be in a lock down. A chill period. After a year or two y’all can come out and play with the others.
What a way to celebrate their mother/grandmothers life.
There’s a New York Post article with a little more detail, and one pic of the house. Almost a million bucks for that little old house. Not even a garage, just a lean-to. Sounds like her son, who had apparent mental issues, lived with his mom in the home. His remaining family was there to set up sale of the home. Tragic.
So now the Mother’s dead because of old age and every single sibling is dead? What the heck!
