Police in Lorain, Ohio, are hunting Josue R. Rodriguez, 45, who is wanted on a murder warrant after Dominic Berlingeri Jr., 41, was shot dead on Thursday afternoon (October 29). Officers were called at about 1:24 p.m. to the parking lot at 2957 Pearl Avenue, where they found Berlingeri with a gunshot wound to his left leg. He was taken to Mercy Health — Lorain Hospital, where he died. Police say the two men had been in an altercation; Rodriguez allegedly retrieved a firearm and, after another exchange, shot Berlingeri. Rodriguez fled east through an alley between East 29th and East 30th streets in a red 1996 Toyota Tercel with Ohio plate LAK9790. He is considered armed and dangerous. He has distinctive tattoos: boxing gloves on his throat, the name "Rachel" on the back of his right hand, cursive writing above his left eye and the name "Josue" on his left forearm. Police checked several locations but had not found him when they issued their appeal on Friday (October 30). Anyone with information is asked to call Lorain police at 440-204-2100 or Detective J.
