A former Masury man is being held in a New York City Jail without bond for the murder of a Hermitage man in Brookfield two years ago.

Joseph Rosario, 25, has been held in the Vernon C. Bain Center since New York Police arrested him on August 29.

There has been a warrant for Rosario’s arrest since August 2018 when a murder charge was filed in Trumbull County Eastern District Court.

Rosario is a suspect in the July 27, 2018 shooting death of 24-year-old Jason Drummond, who died from a head wound a few hours after he was found inside a car on the 600 block of Brookfield Avenue.

Both the driver's side and rear windows of the car had been shot out.

Police say the shooting occurred on Warren Sharon Road, but a woman who was in the car with Drummond got behind the wheel and drove to the Brookfield Avenue address.

Police found at least one shell casing on the 7800 block of Warren Sharon Road, just east of Yankee Run Golf Course.

Drummond was first taken to Sharon Regional Hospital before being transferred to Mercy Health in Youngstown where he died.

Authorities will extradite Rosario back to Ohio for prosecution.

According to New York City court records, the next hearing for Rosario is set for October 6.
