On February 17, 1995, 21-year-old Donny Terry Jr. was tragically shot while driving his gold 1980 Buick Regal in Dayton, Ohio. The incident occurred near 1247 Riverview Avenue. Witnesses reported that after being shot, Terry's vehicle crashed into a pole. When bystanders approached to offer assistance, they found him struggling to communicate, likely due to his injuries. He was subsequently taken to the hospital, where he later passed away.
The case remains unsolved despite initial witness accounts and continued efforts by the Dayton Police Department. The Ohio Attorney General’s Office includes Terry's murder in its cold case database, actively encouraging anyone with additional information to come forward. Investigators believe that even a small detail could be crucial in helping to resolve this long-standing case and bring justice to Terry’s family.
