Trotwood police are asking for the public’s help nearly a year-and-a-half after a man was found shot to death in his home.

Charles McLemore Sr., 73, was found shot multiple times in the house in the 5400 block of Northford Road, according to the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office.

The shooting was reported on Aug. 24, 2018.

Trotwood police responded to the house around 9:30 a.m. after a Merchant Security Officer was sent to check on McLemore when he hadn’t been seen or heard for days, according to records.

McLemore’s body was found just inside the door of the home covered in a blanket and a shell casing was found nearby, court records show.
