Scott E. Rockenfelder Jr., 28, was shot early on December 26, 2017, while in a car on Main Avenue Southwest in Warren, Ohio. He was pronounced dead at the scene and later died at Trumbull Memorial Hospital’s emergency room. A 27-year-old woman in the same car was also shot; she called 911 and was taken to another hospital for treatment. The vehicle was located at 1201 Main Ave. at 2nd Street.

Authorities treated the incident as a shooting under investigation and said the area had a history of drug activity. If ruled a homicide, Scott’s death would have been the city’s 12th that year. Scott was a Warren G. Harding High School graduate, a self-employed laborer, and is survived by three children, parents and siblings. He had an extensive law enforcement history, including multiple bookings and a 2011 sentence for being a felon in possession of a firearm and receiving stolen property.

Does anyone have information about the early-morning shooting on Main Avenue that could help investigators?
