On June 4, 2019, a little after 5 P.M., longtime friends Carnell “Nell” Sledge and Katherine “Kate” Brown arrived at the Rocky River Reservation which is a section of the Cleveland MetroParks. Both met at a pull-off gravel parking lot near the Lorain Road Bridge. Carnell and Katherine were shot and killed near a park bench shortly after arriving. Carnell was only 40 years old and Katherine was just 33 years old. These homicides are still unsolved. We covered this case before (see below) and will continue to follow up as necessary until an arrest(s) is made. Anyone with information regarding these murders is asked to call the FBI’s Cleveland field office at 216-622-6842. Tips can also be submitted at tips.fbi.gov If you wish to remain anonymous please contact Crime Stoppers of Cuyahoga County at 3216-252-7463.
