We wonder if the Detectives will be able to tie this into any of the recently ignored incidents downtown:
- Police and relatives later said a co-worker found Jernagin dead inside a back office of Wabash Food & Liquors at about 8 a.m., the victim of an apparent robbery. The store’s door was locked when the co-worker arrived, police said.
Jernagin, 57, had been shot in the back of the head, police said. A source indicated a safe was found open in the office.
Police did not say when they believe the shooting occurred, but one of Jernagin's sisters, who lives in an apartment above his home in the city’s South Shore neighborhood, did not hear Jernagin return home Thursday night, his brother George Miles said.
Hmmmmm.
