9th homicide victim was former gang member looking to reform

YOUNGSTOWN

Police say whoever shot and killed a man late Wednesday in a North Side home shot him from inside the home.

Calvin Moore, 44, of Katherine Street, was found dead about 10:15 p.m. on the couch of a home in the 200 block of Norwood Avenue. His death is the city’s ninth homicide of 2016.

Moore had recently told police that he’d once been a gang member, was tired of street life and hoped to get his life together for better things.

Detective Sgt. Michael Lambert, the lead investigator, said Moore was shot several times and there were several shell casings inside the home. He said it appears whoever shot Moore was inside the home when they fired the shots.
