MAMAKATING – On the morning of December 26 at approximately 10:30 a.m., Sullivan County 911 dispatched law enforcement to a reported shooting at 10 Sunset Point, Yankee Lake, in the town of Mamakating.

When New York State Troopers arrived, they discovered 65-year-old Thomas K. Fusco of Wurtsboro deceased inside the residence from a gunshot wound. 

Following this, authorities launched a homicide investigation in collaboration with the Sullivan County Sheriff’s Office and the Sullivan County District Attorney’s Office.

The investigation led officers to a neighboring residence, where they executed a search warrant. Inside, officers found two additional victims: 69-year-old Maryann Daloia of Wurtsboro, who was also deceased from a gunshot wound, and 72-year-old Richard Daloia of Wurtsboro, who was discovered with what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Both individuals were pronounced dead at the scene.

Authorities believe the incident may have been a murder-suicide, with the investigation still ongoing. State Police were assisted at the scene by the Department of Environmental Conservation Police.

State Police are urging anyone with information regarding the incident to contact them at (845) 344-5300, referencing case #NY2401022318. Updates on the investigation will be provided as more details become available.
