Do you know who murdered Charles Getz?
On December 4, 1969, Charles Getz, aged 63, was found dead in Dayton, Ohio. He was the victim of a fatal shooting during an attempted robbery at a jewelry store. The incident occurred in Montgomery County, where Getz was the vice president of the jewelry store he owned. During the robbery, an unknown assailant shot him in the face and neck before escaping with an unspecified amount of money.

The homicide took place in the area of downtown Dayton, and Getz was pronounced dead at the scene. The case was investigated by the Dayton Police Department, and it remains unsolved to this day. Despite efforts to gather leads, no suspects have been identified, and the police continue to seek information that might help solve the crime. Authorities, including the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI), urge anyone with relevant information to come forward, hoping that renewed public attention might bring new clues to this long-standing cold case.
