Ronald Gillerson, 49


Police were called to a halfway house in the South Deering neighborhood, where Ronald Gillerson was found about 8:30 p.m. on Devember 29th with apparent blunt force trauma to his head. Gillerson, a resident there, was fatally beaten by his roommate. The two men had an argument that escalated into a fight. Gillerson's roommate pushed him on to a coffee table and once he was down, grabbed what furniture he could find to beat Gillerson with, including a computer monitor and a coffee table leg. Witnesses told police that after Gillerson was unconscious on the floor his roommate put a butter knife in Gillerson's hand.
