Kevin Hollywood Hein, 59, was shot and killed during an armed robbery at the Short Branch Saloon in Neenah, Wisconsin, on the night of October 14, 2019. Friends knew him as Hollywood and described him as one of the nicest people; he was a patron at the bar when the robbery and fatal shooting occurred.

Investigators tied a suspect to the scene after a bandana left behind produced DNA that was later matched to that person’s DNA obtained from a cigarette discarded while the individual was under surveillance. The suspect was arrested on November 8, 2019, and charged with first-degree intentional homicide, armed robbery, and first-degree reckless endangerment. It was reported the suspect’s wife worked at the Short Branch Saloon but was not on duty the night of the killing.

Anyone who knew Kevin, was at the Short Branch Saloon that night, or has information about the robbery and shooting is asked to come forward.
