“Tschudy, who was 26 years old at the time of the injury, was reportedly attacked with a baseball bat by then-unknown assailants in a case of mistaken identity,” the statement said.

Tschudy’s cause of death was ruled a homicide because someone else caused the injuries that led to his death.

Although there is no statute of limitations in this case, the coroner’s office said no charges would be filed in the attack because it was “not possible to identify the attackers years ago.”
