Cameron Dyer, 36, of Youngstown, Ohio, was killed on August 26, 2022, during an encounter at a Logan Avenue gas station. Surveillance footage shows Dyer approaching a car driven by 45-year-old Jacques K. Peterman-Oliver of Brookline Avenue, exchanging words, and reaching into the vehicle. Peterman-Oliver fired two shots that struck Dyer; after Dyer fell, he fired seven more rounds and dragged the body to his car.

Peterman-Oliver drove to the Youngstown Police Department and surrendered, claiming self-defense. Investigators determined Dyer was unarmed and concluded Peterman-Oliver’s conduct exceeded self-defense. He was charged with murder and later pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter with a three-year gun specification and having a weapon while not allowed; he received a 10 to 13 1/2 year prison sentence. The Youngstown Police Department and the Mahoning County Coroner’s Office continue to investigate; the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner performed an autopsy.

Dyer’s family and friends remember him as a good father and a loving family member. Does anyone have additional information about the Logan Avenue gas station incident or witnesses who haven’t been heard from?
