YOUNGSTOWN — Aaron Clinkscale, 30, of Rush Boulevard, died Friday in St. Elizabeth Health Center of a gunshot wound to the head suffered Thursday on the city’s South Side.
A Mahoning County coroner’s investigator said an autopsy was to be performed Tuesday.
The investigator said Clinkscale’s death is being investigated as a homicide, but his death has not yet been ruled a homicide.
City police said today they were not aware of Clinkscale’s death.
The victim was found shot and lying in the snow unconscious in front of a vacant house in the 300 block of Florida Avenue at 6:20 p.m. He was taken to St. Elizabeth for treatment.

Pretty hard to investigate a homicide if you dont know the man is dead. 3 days after death the police find out he died? Hmmmm suspicious. Thank God he has a family who will probably take the situation into their own hands.
I wonder why they are late on the news of him dying in the hospital on Friday.
Makes me wonder.One week they do a great job,then the next they do a sloppy job.
foul play suspected................

Well of he didn't shoot himself it must be a homicide . What't the problem in ruling Clinkscale’s death a homicide ?
Oh yes, because the police LOVE to answer to all of you and give you every bit of information they have. It's called tactics......stinkin' armchair quarterbacks.
So I take it that they have no suspect yet ?
ROKSCOUT Criminal Justice 102 Help and cooperation between the community and the police is vital in solving crimes.
Criminal justice 103....smart guy....even if you get leads, you don't broadcast them.
