Julius Apple was 67 when he was found beaten to death at his home at 1119 Walnut Street in the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood of Cincinnati on November 6, 1975. The attack is described as brutal; police classified the death a homicide and the case remains unsolved and cold.

The Cincinnati Police Department and the Ohio Attorney General’s Office have both kept the case active in cold case listings, and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation accepts tips related to the killing. Authorities continue to ask anyone with information, however small, to come forward.

Did anyone in Over-the-Rhine at the time remember unusual activity around Walnut Street on or just before November 6, 1975?
