Robert J. O’Hern Jr., known as Bobby, was 46 when he was found dead in an alley behind a house at 3215 Parkside Avenue in Rockford on the morning of March 9, 2014. He died of a single gunshot wound to the head; investigators believe the shooting occurred during the night of March 8 or the early morning of March 9. His blue Chevrolet Monte Carlo was stolen from the scene.

A longtime Rockford resident and father of sons Joshua and Jesse O’Hern, he had worked 21 years at Rockford Products before later being employed by Americo Chemical in Carol Stream. Family and friends remember him for his love of the Chicago Bears and Cubs and for enjoying fishing and darts.

Rockford Police and the Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office have not announced any arrests or identified suspects, and the case is classified as a cold case. Does anyone have information about Robert, his car, or movements in Rockford on March 8–9, 2014?
