A domestic disturbance on Mill Street in South Dayton, New York, in the early hours of a November morning in 2018 ended with Daniel Tyma, 46, fatally shot inside the home he shared with his father. The Cattaraugus County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call at about 2:45 a.m. and found Tyma deceased from a gunshot wound. His father, 73-year-old Richard Tyma Sr., was at the scene and was arrested and charged with second-degree murder.

He was arraigned in South Dayton Village Court and held at the Cattaraugus County Jail without bail pending further proceedings. At trial both sides agreed that Richard Tyma Sr. had shot Daniel in the face while Daniel was in his bed; the defense described the shooting as arising from longstanding domestic issues.

Did anyone in the area know Daniel or the Tyma family and have details about their relationship or the night this happened?
