The Pennsylvania case centered on the May 22, 2024 shooting death of Karen Kistle, who was found inside her home on Vandien Drive in Dingman Township. Pennsylvania State Police at Blooming Grove investigated the death with help from the Pike County District Attorney’s Office, the Pike County Coroner’s Office and the Delaware Township Ambulance Corps. She died before she could be airlifted to Geisinger Community Medical Center in Scranton.

CBI thanked local partners for the swift arrest, underscoring how quickly a fugitive wanted in another state can be located and detained once a warrant hits a highway corridor that carries both local traffic and long-haul travel. On northbound I-25 near Castle Pines, state troopers and Douglas County deputies were part of the stop that ended the search for Kistle.
