Lorain County Coroner Dr. William Kishman ruled the shooting death of 14 year old Charles Combs a homicide. The body was found Oct 3 in a ditch near Rowelyn Avenue. Investigators believe the rifle was discharged about six inches from Combs making it unlikely he fired the shot. A second 14 year old in custody since Oct 12 faces possible charges after polygraph and lab results are reviewed. Preliminary hearing likely Thursday or Friday.
