Pray for Dustin Willey, Wrenn Willey, August, and Raven Broski
Tiffin, Ohio — A Tiffin mother is facing unimaginable grief after a tragic murder-suicide claimed the lives of her two young sons and their fathers late Wednesday evening.
Authorities confirmed that Raven Broski is the mother of Wrenn Willey and August, the two boys fatally shot during the violent incident on Huss Street. Wrenn’s father, Dustin Willey, also died inside the home.
The suspected shooter—locally identified as the father of Broski’s younger son, August—was found outside the residence, deceased from what police say appears to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
The Tiffin community has been shaken by the loss of the three victims, particularly the deaths of the two children. 
Community Grieves the Loss of Dustin and His Son
Following the tragedy, Depot Pizza and Tavern in Tiffin, where Dustin Willey had worked for many years, shared a heartfelt tribute:
“It is with such sadness that we heard the news of the passing of Dustin and his son last night. Dustin has been part of our Depot family since he was just a teenager in high school. He was always willing to help us out when we needed over the years and worked every winter when he was laid off from his seasonal job. Our hearts are broken. Thank you, Dustin, for your dedication to us and your beautiful son.”
Willey was originally from Fremont, Ohio, and had been living in Tiffin.
His son, Wrenn Willey, was a first-grade student at Washington School in Tiffin, where staff and parents are now mourning the loss of the young boy.
Calls for prayers and support have been extended to Raven Broski and her family as they begin navigating the devastation left behind.
Details of the Incident
According to the Tiffin Police Department, officers were dispatched to the 100 block of Huss Street on November 19, 2025, at approximately 6:24 p.m. after reports of gunshots and screams.
When officers entered the residence, they found four individuals inside:
-
An adult male (later identified as Dustin Willey)
-
Two male children suffering from apparent gunshot wounds
-
An adult female, physically uninjured but described as in shock, overwhelmed, and visibly traumatized
Dustin and one of the children were pronounced dead at the scene.
First responders immediately administered lifesaving measures on the second child, who was transported—along with the mother—to Mercy Hospital by the Tiffin Fire & Rescue Division. Despite extensive medical efforts, the child later died from his injuries.
Outside the home, police located another adult male deceased from what appears to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound, leading investigators to treat the case as a homicide–suicide.
Investigation Ongoing
The residence was secured as detectives began processing the scene. The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) was called in to assist with crime-scene processing, evidence collection, and interviews.
Tiffin Police officials state that the investigation remains active as they work to determine the full circumstances surrounding this tragedy.
