On July 23, 1997, 32-year-old Calvin Strong was found shot to death in the front seat of his vehicle on rural Switzer Road north of Fostoria. A man who was in the car with Strong told police they had driven to that spot to meet other people and complete a drug transaction. According to that witness, another vehicle parked behind them and a person approached Strong’s car, conducted the exchange through the open front passenger window, then produced a gun and fired through that window at Strong.

Strong was struck repeatedly in the head, neck, shoulder and back; the passenger was not injured. The assailant returned to the other vehicle, turned it around on the gravel roadway and drove west; tire tracks at the scene corroborated a second vehicle had been present.

Is there anyone who remembers activity on Switzer Road that night or who knew Calvin’s associates that police should speak with?
