Gainesville Police is investigating both a suspected murder that took place early Monday in a parking garage at North Florida Regional Medical Center and a subsequent suicide.
At about 9 a.m., officers responded to a call reporting a dead woman on the third floor of the parking garage, according to a GPD news release.
Officers found 37-year-old Casey Renee Wilsey of Bronson, Fla., dead in her car, likely from a stab wound to her torso, according to the release.
Police reported that Walker Gage Wilsey, 46, the woman’s estranged husband, attacked Casey Renee Wilsey in her car sometime between 8:15 and 8:30 a.m. He then fled the scene in a pickup truck.
The department asked several Florida law enforcement agencies to check out the multiple addresses listed on file for Wilsey.
At about 3:30 p.m., the Daytona Beach Police Department discovered Wilsey dead at a home in Daytona Beach, according to the release.
Police reported he committed suicide.
UF criminology senior C.J. Wittus said he was on his way to AT&T to meet his managers when he noticed something was off.
From 62nd Street to Interstate 75, “there was a cop on every single corner,” he said.
