Spate of killings shatter picture-perfect community in the town that Disney built

JUST days after reporting its first homicide, the town Disney built is investigating another death. This time, a man killed himself after shooting at deputies.

Craig Foushee, 52, barricaded himself in a home on Thursday for more than 14 hours, according to an Osceola County Sheriff’s Office report. He shot at deputies several times, but deputies never returned fire because they couldn’t get a clear shot. No deputies were injured.

Police entered the home early yesterday and found him dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. Sheriff’s spokeswoman Twis Lizasuain said there was no connection between Foushee and Matteo Patrick Giovanditto, who was found slain in a condominium on Tuesday.
