Kelbys Avila Death – Authorities report that a man was found dead in Town ‘N’ Country after allegedly being killed by his girlfriend, who then took her own life while attempting to flee. The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene and identified the deceased man as Kelbys Avila, aged 50. Following their investigation, deputies determined that the girlfriend, Maira Pacheco Nuñez, aged 58, shot and killed Avila before leaving in a car.
A warrant was subsequently issued for Nuñez’s arrest on charges of second-degree murder with a firearm. Nuñez’s vehicle was later located by the Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office in Alabama, leading to a traffic stop. Tragically, during this time, Nuñez ended her own life with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Sheriff Chad Chronister expressed his condolences, emphasizing that violence is never a solution and urging those facing or suspecting domestic violence to seek help. The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office is currently conducting an investigation into this incident.
