Renee Lynn Gill, 37, was shot and killed during an overnight home invasion at 132 Eleanor Street in Langeloth, Smith Township, Pennsylvania, on June 16, 2025. Masked intruders dressed in black entered the house around 1:15 a.m.; an argument and struggle followed. Both Gill and her adult son were struck by gunfire. Paramedics treated Gill at the scene but she was pronounced dead at the home about 5 a.m. Her son was hospitalized and expected to recover. Dispatch and trooper logs show both victims managed to call 911 during the incident, providing details as events unfolded.

State police and prosecutors later announced arrests and charges in connection with the killing. Two men, Michael Coury Pyles and Walter Lee Winland Jr., were charged; authorities say the men entered at gunpoint, demanded drugs, and during a struggle shots were fired that fatally struck Gill and wounded her son. Police allege the suspects then left with items and crossed state lines. One suspect was arrested in Wheeling, West Virginia, and both were reported in custody facing homicide and related charges.

Renee Lynn Gill is remembered in obituary notices that confirm her age and the June 16, 2025, date of death and note surviving family in Washington County. Does anyone have information about activity on Eleanor Street that night or knew the victims who could help investigators?
