A young Pennsylvania scientist was fatally shot with her own gun while desperately trying to run away from her boyfriend after ending their relationship.
Alyssa Wiest, 25, of Conshohocken, had went to meet her boyfriend of two years Michael Dutkiewicz on Sunday and break up with him.
But her promising future as a microbiologist tragically cut short when she was found dead on the sidewalk with multiple gunshot wounds to her torso.
Michael, 26, of Warminster, was arrested and charged in connection with the senseless killing, according to the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office.
'He knew she was out of his league, and I think as soon as he realized she was pushing him away, he couldn't cope with leaving one of the best things to happen to him,' Kurt Wiest, Alyssa's brother, told The Philadelphia Inquirer.
