I can’t believe the police officer arrested Darion.
He deserves a high five, not a prison sentence.
A man is accused of fatally shooting his girlfriend in Munhall on Saturday afternoon.
Munhall Police and paramedics were sent to a home on Louise Street near East 14th Avenue around 1:15 p.m. for a report of a shooting.
When they arrived, they found 19-year-old Miranda Grimm-Gilarski, of Homestead, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police say around the same time that the shooting was reported, 20-year-old Darion Abel drove into the Munhall Police parking lot, approached an officer and said he was there to turn himself in.
According to a criminal complaint, when the officer asked what Abel was turning himself in for, Abel said, “Murder. I just shot my girlfriend 17 times.” He also allegedly told the officer the weapon was on the front seat in his car.
At the scene of the shooting, officers found several holes in the floor underneath Grimm-Gilarski’s body and projectiles were recovered from the basement duct work, which police say indicates that some of the rounds were fired directly into Grimm-Gilarski while she was lying on the ground.
When officers interviewed Abel, he said he and Grimm-Gilarski had been in a relationship for the past year and on various occasions during their relationship, they assaulted one another.
