Beating Death Of Tredyffrin Woman Was Reportedly 'Targeted'

Tredyffirn, PA -- The murder of a woman in Berwyn was the result of an attack that has been reportedly characterized by authorities as "targeted."

Denise Barger, 62, was found beaten to death in her Heatherstone Drive home on June 17. She died of blunt-force trauma.

"Every indication we have is that this was a targeted attack,” Hogan told the Daily Local News. “Given the location of where the victim lived, which is out of the way of well-traveled spots, this does not appear to be a random attack.”

6ABC reports the woman's husband died in March and she recently sold her home but had not yet moved.

Anyone with any information should contact the Tredyffrin Police Department at 610-644-3221.
