On the night of January 14, 2019, 29-year-old Jon Paul Dirette was shot during a forced entry at his McKinley Street home in Houghton Lake, Michigan. Three men wearing dark clothing with faces covered and armed with long guns entered the residence, shot Dirette, and fled on foot. He was given first aid and taken to Munson Healthcare Grayling Hospital, where he died of his injuries that day.

Investigators arrested multiple men connected to the incident. In early February 2019, Levi D. Seelye, 20, of Falmouth; Keante A. Grays, 18, of Lake City; and Jordan R. Tetro, 18, of McBain were arraigned on charges of murder, assault with intent to rob while armed, and felony firearm possession; all pleaded not guilty and bond was denied. Two others, Seth N. Medendorp, 20, of Falmouth, and Travis E. Forbes, 21, of Lake City, were also arraigned; Medendorp later pleaded guilty to first-degree home invasion, and in January 2020 Seelye entered a no contest plea to amended second-degree homicide.

Are there details about the night or the suspects that anyone in the area can add?
