Eric Michael Wheeler, 22, died from a gunshot at a southeast Springfield residence on December 30, 2013. A 2011 Northeastern High School graduate who played football and powerlifting, he was employed by Navistar International and a member of UAW Local 402.

Wheeler and another man in his 20s had been drinking before the shooting. Police investigated and ultimately filed no charges; officials said the shooting was believed to be an accident. Family members described the loss as devastating and expressed confusion while seeking answers.

Reports emphasize that the exact circumstances of the shooting remain unclear. Does anyone have information about that night or about Eric that could help clarify what happened?
