Harry Dick was killed by strangulation inside a business on the 1700 block of 20th Street Northwest in Dupont Circle on May 19, 1971.

The Metropolitan Police Department’s Homicide Branch treated the business and the surrounding block as the central crime scene. Official notices and cold-case listings provide few details—no description of a struggle, no named witnesses, and no specific weapon beyond manual or ligature strangulation. MPD continues to list the killing as an unsolved homicide and has offered a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

No records show any suspect arrested, charged, or publicly named in connection with the case. Does anyone who was in the Dupont Circle area on or around May 19, 1971, or who knew Harry Dick, have information that could help resolve this case?
