On the evening of January 2, 2021, Robert C. Bobby Truhan III, a 40-year-old white man, was fatally shot outside Laddie’s Bar and Grill in Martinsburg, West Virginia, while celebrating his birthday. Deputies responded to multiple gunshot reports and found three victims in the parking lot at 170 Lutz Avenue; Truhan and 52-year-old Richard Light Sr. were pronounced dead at the scene, and a third person survived and was taken to Berkeley Medical Center in stable condition. Authorities said the confrontation involved members of two motorcycle clubs and did not appear to be a random attack on the public, but investigators did not publicly identify a shooter or exactly what sparked the violence.

Truhan, originally from Woodbury Heights, New Jersey, had moved to Martinsburg and was remembered by family and friends as a devoted father, a motorcycle enthusiast, a volunteer firefighter and EMT, and someone who enjoyed the mountains and Philadelphia sports. Memorial gatherings were held in the Eastern Panhandle and funeral services in New Jersey. Who witnessed the confrontation or has photos or video that could clarify who was present and how the shooting began?
