Chad J. Petipas, the suspect wanted in connection with a fatal double shooting in Hartford, has barricaded himself inside a Budget Inn in Holyoke, Massachusetts. The incident began on Wednesday, June 17, when Hartford police responded to reports of a shooting on Magnolia Street around 7 p.m. Upon arrival, officers discovered 46-year-old Diana Tirado of New Britain deceased in a vehicle, having been shot multiple times. A second female victim, identified only as being in her 30s, was found on a nearby sidewalk and transported to a local hospital where she remains in stable condition. Investigators tracked Petipas to Holyoke, where he took refuge in a motel on Northampton Road around 8 a.m. on Thursday, June 18. Police confirmed that Petipas had a woman with him inside the room, though it remains unclear if she is being held as a hostage. As of 5 p.m. on Thursday, authorities had not confirmed whether the standoff had been resolved. The Hartford Police Department continues to investigate the circumstances surrounding the barricade and the initial shooting. Residents and the public are urged to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to local law enforcement. This situation involves a suspect currently at large and considered dangerous. Further updates regarding the resolution of the standoff and the condition of the woman with the suspect are expected as the investigation proceeds.
