WARREN -- Police are investigating a fatal shooting that occurred at 1:37 a.m. Monday near 599 Lane Drive, at the Hampshire House apartments.
Police went to investigate after a caller said two to three shots were fired.
The Trumbull County Coroner's office was called to the scene a short time later, when a body was found outside of a vehicle.
Timothy Allen Jr., 34, 1584 Ferndale Ave. SW, was identified as the person found on Martin Street, which is nearby.
Coroner's office officials said an autopsy is expected to be done sometime today.
In Youngstown, police also are investigating circumstances of a man, 35, shot dead in a vehicle. He was found dead with multiple gunshot wounds at 720 Parkview Ave. off Glenwood Avenue in the Idora neighborhood.
Police said they were sent to the South Side location at 10:03 p.m. Sunday after the department's gunshot-detection technology picked up multiple gunshots being fired.
Officers found the man dead inside a parked vehicle in front of the home. Identification of the victim is being handled by the Mahoning County Coroner's office, according to a news release from the Youngstown Police Department's detective division.
The department said it is investigating but had no suspects as of Monday. No official ruling on the cause of death has been made, but detectives referred to the case as a "homicide investigation."
The home is next to the former Park Inn, which was at one time a popular entertainment venue. In the past few decades, many homes in the area have been demolished or renovated, and murals have been installed on the former Park Inn and other nearby buildings.
