A man in Florida murdered his fiancee — telling her daughter, “I blew her brains out” — with a .357 Magnum revolver after she called off their wedding and gave him back her engagement ring at a football watch party on Sunday, according to police.

Timothy Hyder, 57, was allegedly drinking and watching a game with his fiancee Natalia Du’Mee at a residence in St. Cloud with several other people when she gave him the bad news about breaking off their marriage, St. Cloud Police say. The couple had been in a relationship since October 2021 and were known to “frequently fight and argue” when they drank alcohol together, according to Hyder and relatives who spoke to authorities.

One family member, identified as Du’Mee’s daughter, told police that Du’Mee and Hyder were at the football party together prior to coming home on Sunday night — where the murder occurred — and they had been fighting throughout the day before arriving back at their residence. It’s unclear what prompted Du’Mee to break off the engagement, only that the two had alleged relationship issues for quite some time.
