On the evening of February 14, 2019, 40-year-old Heidi Eve Krotzer Pierce of Akeley, Minnesota, was fatally shot in Nevis during a violent encounter that also killed her 37-year-old sister, Candi Cheryl Goochey. The women died of gunshot wounds after an argument at a residence on Paul Bunyan Trail that also operated as an in-home daycare.

Authorities say 34-year-old Bryce Anthony Bellomo, the husband of the sisters’ other sibling, opened fire when the women arrived. One sister was found dead in the driveway; the other was shot and in a vehicle that Bellomo then fled in. During a roughly 20-minute police pursuit, Bellomo fired at law enforcement and injured a sheriff’s deputy. The chase ended when his vehicle went into a ditch; an exchange of gunfire followed and Bellomo was later found dead in his vehicle. The Ramsey County Medical Examiner’s Office determined his death was a suicide from a gunshot wound. Bellomo had faced a domestic assault charge the previous year and reportedly had been served with divorce papers earlier that month.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who recall the argument or the vehicle leaving Paul Bunyan Trail that evening?
