Police ID Attempted Murder Suspect


By JOE SEELIG

SEBRING — Concepcion Roamon Rockmore, 32, of Sebring, was listed by police as a suspect in the attempted murder of a man who was shot Sunday on Lemon Street.

Anyone with information on Rockmore’s whereabouts is asked to call Det. Sgt. Curtis Hart at 863-471-5108.

Two shots were fired at about 2:20 p.m. Sunday during an argument. One individual was hit in the torso, said Sebring Police Cmdr. Steve Carr.
A second victim was hit in the foot by a piece of shrapnel, (a piece of the bullet that missed the other victim), Carr said.

A warrant on a charge of second-degree attempted murder has been issued for Rockmore, who is considered to be armed and dangerous.

“He was in the immediate vicinity of the subject that was shot in the torso, said Carr on Monday. “It appears it was the result of an argument that started right there on Lemon.”

There was some gambling going on just prior to the shooting, Carr said, but police are not sure that was part of the cause.

Police believe the shooter acted alone.
