On January 17, 2017, officers in Columbus, Ohio, were first called to South Wheatland Avenue after reports of a woman being assaulted in the street. The victim apparently walked away before police arrived. About 20 minutes later responders were summoned to a nearby location for an unresponsive female believed to be the same person. The woman, identified as 29-year-old Sandy Roth, was taken to Mt.

Carmel West Hospital and stabilized but never regained consciousness. On March 19, 2017, at 2:45 a.m. she succumbed to her injuries and was pronounced deceased; the Columbus Police Department later classified the death as a homicide. No suspects have been publicly identified and the case remains unsolved. Authorities have added the case to the Ohio Attorney General’s list of unsolved homicides and continue to seek tips.

If anyone has information that could help, contact the Columbus Police Department or submit a tip through the Ohio Attorney General’s cold case resources.
