Thomas Wohlfeil, 37, was killed while performing his duties as a constable on November 24, 1989, in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania. Wohlfeil, who also served as a Staff Sergeant in the Pennsylvania Air National Guard, was escorting Catherine Coder to the home of her estranged husband, Gregory Paul Coder, to retrieve personal belongings. When they entered the residence, Gregory Coder, armed and lying in wait, opened fire and fatally shot both Wohlfeil and Catherine Coder.

Gregory Paul Coder was arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder. At trial the evidence described the killings as planned and brutal; he was convicted on both counts and received two consecutive life sentences. The community was left mourning two lives taken during what was meant to be a protective escort.

If anyone knew Thomas Wohlfeil, Catherine Coder, or saw activity around that Elizabethtown residence on November 24, 1989, please come forward with information.
