On August 6, 2024, 66-year-old Benjamin Renwick was fatally shot at his Boynton Beach home on the 1000 block of Southwest 20th Street. Police say Renwick’s phone was used to call 911, during which moaning and a single gunshot were heard, then silence. Two minutes later his husband, 61-year-old George J. Bereska Jr., called and told dispatch they had been in a very bad argument and that he had shot Renwick in the chest, later saying Renwick was dead.

Officers found Renwick’s naked body on the kitchen floor with several gunshot wounds; three shell casings and a Taurus firearm were recovered, one casing in the living room and two in the kitchen, and the gun on the dining table. Investigators reported no signs of a physical struggle or disarray. Bereska was taken into custody, told detectives he’d been in a blackout and intoxicated since early evening, though officers observed no signs of intoxication and noted he had no visible injuries or blood. He faces one count of first-degree murder with a firearm and is being held without bond.

Did anyone in Boynton Leisureville or the American Legion Post 164 see or hear anything that night?
