Eugene F. Lohery was 54 when he was murdered during a home invasion at his South Case Avenue residence in Akron, Ohio, on August 1, 1981. He was fatally stabbed inside his home; reports describe the attack as particularly brutal.

The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation continues to maintain the case and encourage anyone with information to come forward. Online memorials, including a Find a Grave page listing his birth year as 1927, preserve Lohery’s memory and provide a place for tributes.

Does anyone have information about that night or knew Eugene and can help provide leads?
