In Puerto Rico, Tyler Wilkin, a 35-year-old man originally from Wilmington, Ohio, was found dead on July 10, 2024, after being shot execution-style while camping alone at Playa la Selva. His body was discovered by a beachgoer early in the morning, and local authorities reported that he suffered a single gunshot wound to the back of the head, indicating he was likely shot at close range. Wilkin had been camping at the remote beach since July 8, and in his final messages to friends and family, he expressed concerns about a man known as 'the howler' who had been causing disturbances near his campsite. This individual was reportedly lighting fireworks and making loud noises, which Wilkin described in his texts. His girlfriend, Iva Mo, became alarmed when he failed to send his usual morning message, prompting her to report her concerns to the authorities. The investigation into Wilkin's murder has not yet led to any arrests, leaving his family and friends seeking answers and justice. They have initiated a GoFundMe campaign to hire a private investigator to explore all possible leads in the case. Wilkin's family described him as someone who lived life with enthusiasm and joy, and they are devastated by the sudden loss of a loved one who had just begun a new chapter in Puerto Rico after moving there in January 2024. The community is left grappling with the tragedy of his death and the unanswered questions surrounding the circumstances of the crime.
