Craigslist jobseeker found dead in Ohio grave


Recommended Posts

CALDWELL, Ohio (AP) ? A sheriff says a jobseeker from Florida has been killed and another from South Carolina has been shot after they responded to a Craigslist ad for a job on an Ohio cattle farm.

Noble County Sheriff Stephen Hannum indicated in an email Friday that he wasn't ready to identify the pair of suspects. The sheriff's office said Hannum would release more information at 11 a.m. EST.

The sheriff says robbery seemed to be the motive.

The Akron Beacon Journal reported on the suspects' ages and said the man was from Akron and the boy was an area high school student.

The Florida man's body was found this week in a remote area about 80 miles east of Columbus.

Hannum says the South Carolina jobseeker who responded to the same ad was shot but escaped.
