Loretta Faye Yoli, an 81-year-old woman from Groveport, Ohio, was found shot on the porch of a residence on Carpenter Road NE in Lancaster and died January 6, 2018, at Fairfield Medical Center. The Fairfield County Sheriff’s Office initially called the death suspicious and opened an investigation into the circumstances surrounding her passing.

An 84-year-old Lancaster man, Frederick R. Held, was later indicted by a grand jury on a murder charge in connection with Yoli’s death. Held told authorities he heard a gunshot and did not know what had happened; he was also hospitalized after the incident. 911 calls from the scene reflected confusion about the events that led to Yoli’s death.

The investigation and the grand jury indictment represent key steps in the case, but questions about the precise sequence of events remain. Does anyone have information about the Carpenter Road NE residence or saw activity there around the time of the shooting?
