Who was Tyler Kinnon Nulisch? Florida man, 30, fatally shot by GF in a drunken stupor after a brawl
MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA: A 30-year-old man, Tyler Kinnon Nulisch, was reportedly shot and killed by, his 33-year-old girlfriend, Brittany Holbrook, in the early hours of June 17 at a residence in Key West, Florida. The incident occurred following a night of drinking and a reported brawl. Although Holbrook, who has been arrested, claimed that Nulisch had strangled her, authorities did not find any evidence of injuries on her throat or broken blood vessels in her eyes, casting doubt on her self-defense claim.
On June 17, around 2.45 am, the Monroe County Sheriff's Office received a call regarding a medical emergency at a residence on Avenue F in Big Coppitt Key. According to an arrest affidavit, the couple's roommate, Jordan Kinn, contacted 911 and reported that Nulisch was seriously injured. Jordan also mentioned the presence of a significant amount of blood at the scene.
Officials found a 9mm handgun and bullet casing
Law enforcement deputies discovered Nulisch had sustained a gunshot wound on his back. They also found a 9mm handgun and bullet casing near him. Nulisch was immediately transported to Lower Keys Medical Center on Stock Island, but he succumbed to his injuries approximately an hour after the emergency call was received by the sheriff's office.
