Francis Gerald Romisch was 19 and stationed at Fort Carson when he was found dead along Highway 115 in Colorado Springs on June 17, 1975. An autopsy determined he died of multiple gunshot wounds, and the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office is investigating his death as a homicide.

Reports say Romisch was shot while inside his white two-door International pickup at a rest stop on Highway 115. After being wounded he apparently tried to flee, driving only a few hundred feet before his truck left the road and stopped against a barbed wire fence. Deputies found his body on the ground just outside the driver’s side door; the truck showed several bullet defects. He was wearing blue jeans, a brown shirt, a brown belt, and green socks, while his cowboy boots were nearby.

No arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified. Does anyone have information about Romisch, that rest stop on Highway 115 in June 1975, or other details that could help solve this case?
