Edward Charles Little Eddie Hunter Jr., 29, was fatally shot inside a Franklinton bar in Columbus, Ohio, on July 1, 2021, after a fight between two groups. Witnesses reported that he was shot in the back while standing and then shot again by Clyde T. Littlefield, 23, while he lay injured; Little Eddie died at the scene.
Clyde Littlefield was arrested in August 2021 in Morgantown, West Virginia, by U.S. Marshals. He later pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter with a firearm specification, illegal possession of a firearm in a liquor permit premises, and carrying a concealed weapon; a murder charge was dismissed as part of the plea. Logan Besse, a friend of Littlefield’s who was identified early on as a person of interest, pleaded guilty to having a weapon under disability and was sentenced to two years and six months of community control.
The loss deeply affected his family, friends, and the community. If anyone has information about Edward Hunter, his last movements that night, or the fight in the bar, please come forward.
