On December 19, officers from the Tyrone Police Department responded to a welfare check in the 500 block of McDade Street. They were alerted by a woman who reported that the father of her infant child had held them hostage overnight after allegedly killing his mother the previous day. The woman stated that the suspect had released them and left the area in a vehicle with the deceased.
