Eduardo Arcia, 53, was found in a residence on Critchfield Road on the east side of Columbus on February 19, 2014, and initially reported as a cardiac arrest. Columbus police and fire medics responded to a 911 call shortly before 2:30 a.m., and Arcia was transported to Mt Carmel East Hospital, where he was pronounced brain dead at 3:08 a.m. The Franklin County Coroner later ruled the death a homicide.

Police say Arcia had been involved in a physical altercation with another man inside the home before the medical emergency. Two individuals were taken into custody for questioning and later released. The coroner did not disclose a specific cause of death at the time, and detectives describe the investigation as open and are asking the public for any information that could help their efforts.

If anyone knew Eduardo, was present at the Critchfield Road residence that night, or has tips that haven’t been shared with investigators, please come forward.
