| Justin Winebrenner |
Officer Winebrenner was a member of the Akron Police Department. He had seven years of service with the Department. He had previously served with the Medina County Juvenile Detention Center for 2 years.
Justin was off duty and he and some friends were at a bar in Akron. At about 2:00 a.m., a male patron at the bar became unruly and was ejected from the premises. The man returned a short time later and brandished a handgun at the staff and some of the customers.
Justin and some of his friends stepped in and confronted the man who opened fire. Justin was struck in the chest and a fellow off duty officer suffered a non life threatening wound. Three other bar patrons were also shot and wounded.
Justin was rushed to a local hospital where tragically he passed away.
Kenan Ivery, age 35, of Akron, was found hiding in a field near the bar. He has a previous
criminal record. He will be charged with aggravated murder and five counts of felonious assault.

Justin's loved ones are devastated over his sudden and tragic death. He will be forever mourned.
Justin is survived by many loving comrades, friends and family members including his father; his four year old daughter and his fiancée. He was predeceased by his mother.
Thank you for your service to the community, Justin.
Pray for all who die while coming to the aid of others.
Pray for all who die suddenly. They are with us one moment and are gone before we can say goodbye.
God save us from the Lost Ones who bring death to strangers.
Pray that Justin is in heaven. Pray that he is at peace and is with God. Amen.
