On the evening of August 8, 2025, police responded to the 5000 block of South Sedgewick Road in Lyndhurst, where they found 38-year-old Dorian Holt lying on the garage floor with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to Hillcrest Hospital and later pronounced dead; local records and obituaries list his date of death as August 8, 2025.

Detectives said the shooting followed an argument inside the garage between Holt and a known acquaintance, 36-year-old Francisco Volinski. Police reported Volinski fled by car and was located and arrested hours later in the Cincinnati area with assistance from the U.S. Marshals Service and the Ohio State Highway Patrol. He was charged with murder; an indictment named murder and felonious assault among the counts, and bond was set at $1 million.

Family and friends held services later in August to honor Holt, reflecting the shock felt in the community. If anyone knew Dorian Holt or has information about what happened that night, please share details with investigators.
