On March 25, 2026, deputies from the Portage County Sheriff’s Office were called to a home on Summit Road in Ravenna after welfare concerns for 78-year-old Connie S. Edens. Officers received no answer at the door and, looking through a window, saw someone slumped in a chair. They forced entry and found both Connie and 70-year-old Donald Edens inside the residence.

Medical examiners determined both Connie and Donald Edens died from gunshot wounds. The Portage County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the deaths; no suspects or arrests have been announced in the immediate aftermath.

What did neighbors or anyone in the Ravenna area notice about the Edens household in the days before March 25 that could help investigators?
