Patrick Feeney, 54, was found murdered on January 5, 2015, in the residence attached to his vintage toy store, Bernie’s Shaver Shop and Collectibles, on East Exchange Street in Akron, Ohio. He was discovered with his hands bound behind his back with duct tape and a gunshot wound to the head; the cause of death was ruled a gunshot wound to the head.

Akeeme AJ Hayes, then 23, was arrested and charged in connection with the killing, including aggravated murder counts, but the Summit County Prosecutor’s Office later recommended those charges be dismissed for insufficient evidence. The Akron Police Department continues to investigate, and Feeney’s family has offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. Family and friends say the lack of physical evidence has hampered the investigation and left them frustrated.

Feeney was known in Akron for his kindness, ownership of the shop, and past involvement in track, cross-country and marathon running as well as playing golf with friends. Does anyone in Akron remember seeing Patrick or his shop around the time of January 5, 2015, or have information that could help the investigation?
