Quadruple amputee named person of interest in parents' death

WATERFORD LAKES, Fla. -- The son of a Florida couple found gunned down in their home has been named a person of interest in their deaths, reports CBS affiliate WKMG.

Sean Petrozzino, a 30-year-old quadruple amputee who neighbors say recently moved back in with his parents, should be considered dangerous, Orange County deputies say.

Investigators are trying to piece together what happened to Nancy Petrozzino, 64, and her husband Michael Petrozzino, 63, after discovering the couple's bodies Tuesday afternoon during a well-being check.

Neighbors told WKMG that the principal of Andover Elementary School called 911 after Nancy Petrozzino didn't show up to teach her second-grade class. They said her husband worked at Walt Disney World.

"You just can't imagine something like this happening to one person, let alone a couple," said next door neighbor Richard Ellwood. "It's difficult to imagine someone who would have that much rage, whoever did this."

Deputies released a surveillance picture of Sean Petrozzino taken on Tuesday morning at an Orlando ATM.

They believe he may be in a red four-door Toyota with the Florida tag 112VZY and he may be armed.
