cbs6 ran this look into an area murder, the 2006 shooting of Michael Dobbs:

It was Feb. 5, 2006, a day before Super Bowl Sunday. Dobbs, a 22-year-old recent college graduate, was visiting a high school friend in the Fan. They were planning a party for the next day to watch the big game.

[…] Fultz has worked the Dobbs case from the beginning. He said the night he was killed, Dobbs walked down Ellwood Avenue towards Carytown where his car was parked.

“He was leaving a friend’s apartment and walk walking to his car and something horrific happened,” said Dobbs.

Fultz said at least two men approached Dobbs with the intention of robbing him. There was a struggle and police said Dobbs likely did what he so often had — he ran. […]

By the time police were called to the corner of Ellwood and Auburn, Dobbs had died from his gunshot wound.
