This is an I-Heart podcast. Crime alert, hourly update. Breaking Crime News now. I'm Dave Mack. An Ohio man fatally shot two children and an adult before killing himself in an apparent murder suicide. At the scene, officers discover four victims suffering from gunshot wounds and an adult female who was physically uninjured,

but clearly in a state of shock, overwhelmed and visibly traumatized. Investigators determined the shooting occurs during an effort by the mother of two children to remove belongings from the residents following ongoing domestic issues in the home. According to authorities, Dustin Willie, the father of the female seven-year-old son, is at her place of residence to help her move out of the home. Police say Ryan Egan is the father of the woman's seven-month-old baby. Police allege. Egan chases Dustin and fires multiple shots at him.

Egan then shoots both children before directing additional gunfire at Dustin Willie, then fatally shooting himself. The mother tells police she carries her injured children inside the home before officers arrive. Willie is taken to Tiffin Memorial Hospital where he dies from his injuries. Seven-year-old boy also dies at the hospital and the infant and Egan both pronounced dead at the scene. The incident remains an active investigation by the Tiffin Police Department with assistance from the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation. I'm Drew Nelson. He says he used it to save himself from a mugger, yet a man in New York is now facing. four years in prison after pleading guilty to possessing the unlicensed revolver he fired during

a deadly confrontation in Queens. That man is Charles Foner, a 67-year-old retired doorman from Kew Gardens. He admitted to one count of criminal weapons possession in a deal that ends his case more than two years after he shot Cody Gonzalez, who charged him near his home late at night. Mr. Foner was charged with serious violent felonies, I think inappropriately. you know, you had a decision to me. That's his attorney Thomas Kinnif. Prosecutors did not bring homicide charges because phoner told police he acted in self-defense when Gonzalez lunged at him holding what he thought was a knife.

It later turned out to be a pen. Judge Tony Simino allowed him to remain free until his January 14th sentencing. Detectives carried out of search of his apartment and found more than two dozen firearms, including pistols, hunting rifles, assault rifles, including an AK-E. 47 and 153 loaded high-capacity magazines. They also found two body armor vests. Only five rifles were licensed. The Queen's District Attorney's Office brought a long list of weapons charges tied to

the collection. Surveillance footage from the night of the shooting showed Gonzalez advancing down a driveway even after phoner drew his revolver. Gonzalez had at least 15 prior arrests and a history of mental illness. After the guilty plea, Knif spoke on his behalf and argued that strict New York gun laws create an impossible situation for his client. He criticizes what he calls draconian restrictions and says Foner accepted the deal to avoid the risk of a decades-long sentence if he went to trial. I think that if this was a state in a city that had its affairs in order, Mr. Foner would be getting

a plaque, not a prison sentence. Foner told investigators he carried the silver revolver because he wanted to prevent himself from being a victim. He said he had owned it since the 1990s and told prosecutors, quote, I pulled the gun out of my pocket. It didn't go off accidentally. I emptied the revolver. More crime and justice news after this.
