On October 30, 1956, 26-year-old Carl Delong Jr. was found unconscious Riverhills Drive east of 56th Street of Tampa, Florida. Carl had been beaten badly and his wallet with $70 in it was missing. His missing car was found at the bar he was last seen at. It had turned out he had gotten a ride from someone at the bar. It isn't stated whether or not if they think the people whom he rode with are suspects.
Carl would make it to the hospital, but unfortunately, never recover. He would stay unconscious for 22 days before dying from his injuries on November 20th. The motive for his murder seemed to have been robbery.
