Main Points
Mount Lebanon Police Chief Jason Haberman reported that three people were found unresponsive on the ground near a parking garage behind the municipal building on Washington Road at approximately 4:15 p.m. on Tuesday. All three individuals were pronounced dead at the scene. The Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed that the deaths of the two children, James and Caroline, were homicides caused by multiple blunt force injuries. James was pronounced dead at 4:35 p.m., followed by his sister one minute later. The medical examiner ruled the death of their father, P. Lynch, a suicide, concluding that he threw his children from the five-story parking structure before jumping himself. In a social media post following the tragedy, the children’s mother, Anna Lynch, stated that her husband had been struggling with his mental health since losing his job in August. She noted that he had agreed to seek professional help and was scheduled for a therapy appointment on November 4, which she described as "one day too late." Despite the circumstances, she characterized her husband as a "wonderful dad" and shared memories of her children, noting her son’s love for skiing and her daughter’s fondness for candy and slime. P. Lynch was a graduate of Dartmouth College and held a Master of Business Administration from Carnegie Mellon University. According to his LinkedIn profile, he had worked as a data scientist for the New Jersey-based technology company Slice until August 2024. The company has not commented on the circumstances of his departure. Public records indicate the family resided in a home in Mount Lebanon valued at approximately $1 million. A GoFundMe campaign established to assist Anna Lynch with funeral expenses had raised more than $210,000 by Friday afternoon. Article source: LRytas | Image credit: LRytas
