An intense search is on for the east coast of Florida, according to the Jupiter police in efforts to capture the suspect. The U.S. Marshals Office, FBI and a host of other law enforcement agencies in Florida are assisting in the search.

Police are searching for a man they say shot five people, including a child, Thursday evening at a Jupiter Thanksgiving gathering. Four are dead - including a 6-year-old girl - and another is critically wounded.

Police have identified Paul Michael Merhige, 35, as the suspect in the massacre. He is believed to be driving a four-door, blue 2007 Toyota Camry with Florida license plate W42 7JT. Jupiter Police Sgt. Scott Pascarella said Merhige lives in Miami and is a relative of the victims. His last known address is 10301 SW 88th Ave., Miami.

The shooting happened at 104 Via Veracruz. Pascarella said the Jupiter Police Department received a 911 call from a neighbor shortly after 10 p.m. Police then received a second 911 call from someone within the residence. Pascarella said the shootings took place inside the house.

Seventeen people were inside of the residence at the time, many leaving after a family gathering at the home. The suspect apparently left the home and then returned. He then entered the residence and began shooting with a handgun, according to witnesses.

The deceased victims have been identified as 76-year-old Raymonde Joseph of Jupiter, twin sisters 33-year-old Carla Merhige of Miami and 33-year-old Lisa Merhrige of Miami, and 6-year-old Makayla Sitton of Jupiter, according to Pascarella.

Makayla was flown to St. Mary's Medical Center in West Palm Beach, where she died. Makayla is the daughter of WPTV NewsChannel 5's photojournalist Jim Sitton. Both Jim and his wife Mueriel were uninjured in the shooting.

Paul Michael Mehrige is the brother of two female victims. The fifth victim is 36-year-old Patrick McKnight, Miami, who police said is being treated at St. Mary's. He is in critical condition.

Remember kids, TV shows and movies glorifying violence as well as violent video games and a turd world mentality had nothing to do with this. It was all the fault of the gun which obviously had some kind of mind control over this innocent man.........


How sad, will they find him dead by his own hand or will the survivors of his deadly hissy fit have the opportunity to feed him his roasted testicles (assuming they can be found on this cowardly subhuman creature)?

Something does not add up here!!

Is there evidence or probable cause that this goof has crossed state lines, if not, then why is the FBI involved???

Is he an escaped federal felon, in the federal witness protection program, or has jumped federal bail, if not, why is the US Marshals Office involved???

Could it be that this goblin is a high value terrorist suspect or a highly placed organized crime kingpin???

One wonders.

It does seem that they are expending a lot of time and effort to find a suspect that ordinarily would be a matter for Florida local law enforcement!!

Makayla Sitton, 6, was among the four people killed Thursday in Jupiter.

Makayla is the daughter of WPTV NewsChannel 5's longtime photojournalist Jim Sitton. Both Jim and Muriel Sitton were in the home at the time, but were uninjured in the shooting.
WPTV's Vice President and General Manager, Steve Wasserman, released this statement:

"All of us here at WPTV are stunned and saddened by the death of Makayla Sitton and other members of her family. Her father, Jim Sitton, is a much beloved member of our news team. Our thoughts and prayers are with Jim and his wife, Muriel.

Well he's on the run - and there is a very good chance he is not going to hang around in Florida

Agreed. What used to be in the mind of only the truly twisted is now portrayed as "fun". The thread of that video game where the characters get to mow down innocent civilians comes to mind.

Feed all that into the mind of a young person who is probably considered by those around him/her as somewhat anti-social, give them easy access to a weapon, and this is the type of shit that can happen. How many school shootings have happened in the last 15 years with the explosion of the internet with its socializing and the leftist attitude of allowing anything as long as it doesn't hurt anybody?

Their involvement at it's earliest point would probably be just a BOLO.

If, in fact, the fed agencies had information that intra state flight to avoid prosecution did or was about to take place they would take a much more active role.

As it was/ is The targets were of hi-value and they wanted to show that the feds were on the case early in the ensuing search.

Just an opinion.

He was 35...... he wasn't a kid.

And if you were to start shutting down websites......
we here at TBK, between the gun talk and our political views, we would probably become targets for closure.

As for Michael Merhige....... I'll donate the rope

An attack can happen absolutely anywhere, anytime, for no reason at all. Nowhere it's safe. Unless you are in the mountains somewhere, distant from all people.
