Florida – Man Charged With Murder Of 50-Year-Old Man And His 2 Sons
A 33-year-old Florida man has been arrested in connection with a fatal triple murder that occurred Monday in Miami, according to reports.
Pierce Hoempler was arrested early Tuesday morning and faces three counts of second-degree murder.
According to police, the deadly triple shooting happened at around 4:15 p.m. Monday in the 12000 block of Northeast Fifth Avenue, just south of 123rd Street.
Family and friends cried and hugged each other after learning that their loved ones – a father and his two sons – were fatally shot.
Relatives identified the victims as Hector, Frankie and Jeremy Rivera.
According to an arrest report, Hoempler got into physical fight with Hector Rivera and pinned him down on the lawn. When Hector’s sons came to his aid, police said Hoempler shot all three of them.
Police confirmed that two of the victims were found dead near a home.
The third victim was airlifted to Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Ryder Trauma Center, where he died.
Investigators worked late into the night and eventually detained Hoempler in connection with this triple murder.
Witnesses said the suspect and victims were neighbors.
As of Tuesday afternoon, Hoempler was being held in jail without bond.
