Warren police investigating latest homicide

WARREN — Police are investigating a Thursday evening-homicide that occurred on a quiet northwest side street.

Officers found Dominic Bufano, 55, of 1341 Bingham Ave. NW, dead when they responded to his mother’s 911 call at 7:25 p.m. Donatina Bufano told police she “heard a disturbance in the house,” somewhere on a lower floor than where she was at the time, said Lt. Dan Mason.

The home is a cape-cod style, so she could have been in the top level or on the first floor, he said. He thinks Dominic Bufano was in the basement, he said. An autopsy, possibly later today, might shed more light on what caused the death, Mason said, adding police had no suspects as of early this morning.

Meanwhile, one woman living not far away described the Bingham Avenue neighborhood where the death took place a quiet area without a history of problems. The street has smaller well-kept homes. It is about a block west of the now-vacant former St. Joseph Riverside hospital on Tod Avenue Northwest.
