Dennis Pitch, a 52-year-old man from Narvon, Pennsylvania, was found shot multiple times inside his home on Timothy Drive in Salisbury Township, Lancaster County. He was discovered by family on December 4, 2016; the shooting occurred on December 2, 2016. Pitch was described as a husband, father and grandfather who was well liked in his community.

Investigators concluded Pitch was targeted during a robbery after suspects learned he planned to withdraw a large sum from his retirement account in cash. Four men were implicated: Kristopher Smith, Christopher Lyles, Michael Baker and Brandon Bills. Smith knew Pitch and allegedly conspired with Lyles and Baker, who traveled from Delaware County to commit the break-in while Bills remained in the car. After the group left the house, Smith told Bills that it didn’t go as planned.

The Pennsylvania State Police charged the four men with robbery and criminal homicide. Kristopher Smith was convicted of first-degree murder and received life without parole; Christopher Lyles and Michael Baker were convicted of second-degree murder and received life without parole; Brandon Bills pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 5–10 years.

Did anyone in the Salisbury Township area know Pitch or notice anything unusual around Timothy Drive in early December 2016?
