On September 28, 1966, Richard Bislich, aged 36, was fatally shot during a robbery while working at the Red Head Gas Station located at 390 East Exchange Street in Akron, Ohio. Bislich was an employee at the station and was attacked during a nighttime robbery. He was critically injured in the incident and died several days later as a result of his injuries.
Despite an investigation by the Akron Police Department, the case remains unsolved, and no suspects have been apprehended. The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) continues to list Bislich's case as an unsolved homicide, hoping to bring renewed attention to the circumstances surrounding his death. The authorities urge anyone with information that could help solve this decades-old crime to contact the police or the BCI. Community involvement is crucial for providing any new leads that might help solve the case and bring closure to Bislich's family.
