Lorain's community unites in grief as they honor Officer Phillip Wagner, whose life was lost in an ambush, while two fellow officers recover from their injuries.

LORAIN, Ohio (WOIO) - Investigators say shooting suspect Michael Joseph Parker, 28, of North Lakeview Boulevard, in Lorain was found with multiple high-powered rifles, handguns and large amounts of an explosive called Tannerite.

The gunman accused of ambushing three Lorain police officers had previously been cited by the officer killed following a 2022 crash.

The rain began to fall just before community members bowed their heads. What started as a gray, overcast summer evening turned into a downpour moments before a vigil began Thursday outside Lorain City Hall.
