Cincinnati Police released the name of a man shot to death during a home invasion in South Fairmount early Friday morning.

Two men wearing black ski masks forced their way into a home in the 2200 block of Schoedinger Ave. around 4:15 a.m. Friday morning. They first shot a dog and then shot and killed 30 year old Aaron Roseberry.

Two other people were in the house-at the time. They told police the suspects made them lay down on the floor before they killed Roseberry.  The survivors ran across the street to get help.

Police are searching for a 2005 Blue Chevrolet with an Ohio plate number ETE6839. If you see that vehicle, call police immediately. The suspects are considered armed and dangerous.

The SPCA came to the scene to care for the dog which appears to be a pit bull or pit bull mix.  The dog was shot in the hindquarters and is expected to recover.

This is the fourth homicide in the past 10 days in District 3. There were two in East Price Hill, one in Westwood, and Friday's in South Fairmount. 

Captain Russ Neville said the killings are not connected.

1nicegirl-I'm stating a facebook post that his father made asking for ppl not to fight at his funeral. His father posted that; not me so yes, I can make a comment that I think it's sad that his father has to ask his "friends" to act like mature adults at someone's funeral. I think that is sad. And the person that I am "friends" with on facebook is a girl I went to high school with 13 years ago and haven't seen her since so no, I do not associate myself with "those people" as you put it. I associate with ppl that do not need to be told to not fight at funerals. I'm not trashing Aaron but it is safe to say that I am trashing any of his "friends" that would start a fight at this poor mans funeral!!!!!!!! That's trashy if anyone would do that. Period. Amen.

Whats really sad is you fools get on here to trash a victim of murder and dont say anything about the fat slore who helped murdered him. That shows how the mind of a true simpleton works!Leave aaron alone if you knew the true story behind his so called long rap sheet you would know that it was nothing serious and he never harmed anybody!Aly1234 who are you to judge an entire group of people by a facebook post? Clearly you associate with some of "those people" if you have friends in common you moron! Get of your high horse and quit trashing Aaron. He was a great guy and did not deserve that. RIP Aaron we will all miss you!

I apparently have mutual friends with Aaron on facebook so I am able to see comments people are leaving to him. I saw one from a relative of his, possibly his father, and he posted something along the lines of “if anyone is going to have any problems running into anyone at his layout, please let me know so we can respect Aaron and the family”. What kind of friends did you hang out with that your father has to ask people not to get into a fight at a funeral?!?!?!?! I find that very trashy, embarrassing and “ghetto”. I would be ashamed to call people “my friends” if they have to be asked to act like classy human beings-you should do that anyway. Your adults.

LOL Economist lets have you government name sure you've never done anything wrong ? PAST criminal record isn't a tale of someones whole life, EVERYONE makes mistakes some may not be criminal, they maybe be moral or "petty" but they are still mistakes, do a little research into how "serious" those crimes were. Oh boy this man has at one time possessed marijuana he most be a low life thug !! Come on get it together people you cant judge a person by a sheet you can pull up online ! Hell the girl who is being held for complicity to his murder has no record so she is a saint right ?!?! SIKE now she's a murderer but that's okay for her to do right but because she was someone with no record killing someone who had a record ? Get a life, you obviously don't have much to do if you take a random news story in no way related and stalk a dead man you lowlife piece of crap !
