Craig Roberts, 43, was found shot in his Wellsville, Ohio, home at 502 Wells Hollow Road on August 26, 2002. Known by the nickname Hillbilly, he was discovered in the master bedroom with two gunshot wounds to the head; the shooting occurred sometime after midnight and before 6 a.m. A household member found him and called police. Roberts was taken to a Pittsburgh hospital, declared brain dead, kept on life support, and later died.

Investigators concluded robbery was not the motive and believe the shooter was someone Roberts knew. Prosecutor Robert Herron reported no signs of a struggle and that others were present in the house when the shooting occurred. Suspects have been identified and the case is active, but the firearm has not been recovered and no arrest has been announced.

Anyone with information about who was in the house that night or other details that could help identify the shooter is asked to contact law enforcement.
