An Ohio man’s camping excursion ended in murder in Puerto Rico<\/a> after reports say he was shot and killed execution style.<\/p>\n

Tyler Wilkin, 35, who was living in Puerto Rico after moving from Ohio in 2024, was found dead with a single gunshot wound to the back of his head earlier this month.<\/p>\n

Friends and family say he was camping at Playa La Selva, a remote beach near Luquillo, before he was killed, according to WKRC<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A woman who said she was Wilkin’s girlfriend, Iva Mo, told FOX 19 Cincinnati<\/a> that Wilkin had been texting friends from the campsite about hearing eerie howling outside his tent and what sounded like fireworks.<\/p>\n

“He enjoyed life by the beach playing tennis, hiking, rock climbing, and activities to spend quality time with friends. Yet no matter where life took him, he was never too far from home. He made frequent trips back to be present with those he loved most,” the obituary said.<\/p>\n
