Merton “Mutt” Dickson, 71, a retired farmer from Idalia, was fatally shot near his pickup truck on a lonely road in Yuma County in eastern Colorado on June 17, 1989.
The killing has never been solved, according to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation.
Then-Yuma County Sheriff Bob Howe told the Rocky Mountain News at the time: “As far as we can figure out, he was followed out of Burlington.”
“The suspect pulled up alongside of him and started shooting," Howe said.
The murder weapon was believed to be a 9mm pistol. The slaying occurred at the intersection of Highway 385 and Yuma County Road 7.
The sheriff indicated investigators had identified a person of interest shortly after Dickson was gunned down, the News reported.
