In autumn 2013, 76-year-old Nash Mitchell was found dead inside his home near Northeast 23rd Street and Lottie Avenue in northeast Oklahoma City after a concerned friend alerted police. The state medical examiner determined Mitchell died of a gunshot wound to the chest and ruled the death a homicide. He was a grandfather; the interior of the residence indicated a violent end.

Oklahoma City police investigated and asked the public for help, but in the initial stages they had identified no suspects and no arrests were announced. The killing was one of two unrelated homicides that weekend and the case later went cold, with no public reports of significant leads or arrests. If anyone knew Mitchell, his movements that week, or saw anything in that neighborhood in autumn 2013, please share what information is available.
