Samuel Hughes, 31, was found dead inside his Dayton Street home in Akron, Ohio, on December 12, 2006. Officers from the Akron Police Department responded about 2:15 p.m. and discovered Hughes unresponsive; investigators determined he died of blunt force trauma and classified the death as a homicide.

Investigators have not identified any suspects and the case remains unsolved. Family members say Hughes used and sold drugs, including cocaine, and authorities note investigators have considered whether those activities brought dangerous people into his life and contributed to his death. The Ohio Attorney General’s Office and the Akron Police Department continue to list the case as an active unsolved homicide and have asked the public for any information.

If anyone knew Samuel, his associates, or observed unusual activity around Dayton Street in December 2006, can you share what you know with investigators?
