William Bryan Ross II, 31, of Girard, Ohio, was shot and killed at his residence on Keefer Road in Liberty Township on August 30, 2020. Known as Will, he was born May 27, 1984, and was a graduate of Liberty High School. He worked as a self-employed auto mechanic and electrical repairman and enjoyed motorcycles and basketball. He is survived by his father William Bryan Ross Sr., his mother Valencia Triggs, his sister Antwonya Thompkins, and other family members.

Police reported the shooting followed a heated argument about finances with his roommate, 55-year-old Felix Olverson, who shot Ross on the front porch, fled into nearby woods and was later located by officers. A weapon believed to be used was recovered, and Olverson admitted he had obtained the gun on the street a few days earlier. Olverson was charged in connection with the killing and arraigned in Girard Municipal Court. Some family members said they felt the sentence handed down later was not sufficient.

Did anyone in the community know Will, his movements that day, or have information about the argument that led to the shooting?
