Eric Eugene Wright Jr., 33, of Toledo, was found dead just after dawn on June 15, 2025, in an alley off the 1900 block of Mulberry Street near Page Street. Officers responded to reports of gunfire and arrived about 4:10 a.m.; Wright had been struck by at least one round and died at the scene. Investigators treated the incident as a homicide, marked shell casings, taped off the alley and canvassed for cameras and witnesses. A ShotSpotter alert brought officers to the area, but the shooter was gone when they arrived.

By the end of the day authorities had publicly identified Wright and his death was noted in obituary and memorial postings. As of the initial reports there was no suspect description, no arrests announced and no person of interest named. Does anyone who knew Eric or who was in the Mulberry Street area early on June 15 have information that could help the investigation?
