Gardner Man, Aaron Pennington, Wanted in Connection with Wife's Sunday Homicide

 

A man from Massachusetts is currently wanted for questioning in connection with a tragic incident involving his wife. 

On Sunday, authorities discovered the lifeless body of Breanne "Breezy" Pennington, aged 30, in their home on Cherry Street in Gardner. 

The Massachusetts Department of Children and Family Services (DCF) took custody of their four children who were in the house at the time, as per state and federal law enforcement.

The spouse of the late Breanne, a 33-year-old named Aaron Pennington from Gardner, is now being actively sought by both the Massachusetts State Police and Gardner Police. Worcester District Attorney Joseph Early Jr.'s office issued this information in a press release on Sunday.

In a Monday update, the Gardner Police Department announced that Pennington remains at large, and there is reason to believe he may be armed. Gardner police have cautioned the public that he should be considered armed and dangerous.

It's worth noting that the 33-year-old might be driving a white BMW 320 with Massachusetts veterans plate 8A30, or possibly using a Texas plate with the number DTZ3103 or a California plate with the number 6CWN728.

Aaron Pennington, a white male who stands at 6 feet 2 inches and weighs around 175 pounds, is described as having blonde hair and blue eyes. Although his LinkedIn profile claims he works for Raytheon, the company has clarified that they have no record of an employee by that name. His LinkedIn profile also indicates that he served in the U.S. Air Force.

On social media, Breanne Pennington's posts suggested that the family had recently relocated from California to Gardner. She shared her excitement about buying a historic house built in 1880 in north central Massachusetts, posting pictures of their Cherry Street home where she tragically lost her life. Other posts indicate their renovation efforts on the house, which she referred to as a colonial revival.

Aaron's social media presence indicates that the family may have been affiliated with the Church of Jesus Christ Latter-Day Saints (LDS). He also expressed his love for his wife and family in his posts, describing Breanne as the most important person in his life and very intelligent.

Authorities are urging the public not to approach Pennington if they have information about his whereabouts. Instead, they should contact the Massachusetts State Police at 508-829-8236 or the Gardner Police Department at 978-632-5600.
