Homicide detectives are in the thick of an investigation following a chilling murder in Highland, where a 41-year-old man was found dead from a gunshot in the wee hours of Wednesday morning. The victim, identified as Garron Hathale, a Highland resident, was discovered lifeless on the street; he was pronounced dead at the scene, leaving behind more questions than answers, according to the SBSD - Headquarters.
The call came in at approximately 3:12 a.m. April 10, to the 7300 block of Sterling Avenue after nearby residents heard what they feared were gunshots, sending deputies scrambling to the location where they found Hathale, and despite a neighborhood sweep by law enforcement, no witnesses have come to the forefront and as of now the suspect remains unknown, at large hiding in plain sight.
