The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office is continuing to seek clues as to exactly what happened to a man found beaten last month outside a Century bar. He later died.
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office responded to Odom’s Bar on North Century Boulevard about 10 p.m. on June 19 to find 60-year old Greg Hunter beaten and down in the parking lot.
Witnesses told deputies that Hunter was seen involved in a “shoving match” in the parking lot, but he did not appeared injured. The witnesses went inside the bar, and when they went back outside, they found Hunter unconscious and bleeding, according to the Sheriff’s Office.

It was obviously a local that everyone frequenting the bar knows. It’s called “The Good Ol’ Boy” syndrome…
This is my brother… It took him 29 minutes to die…after we granted his living will wish…We never got to tell him he is loved again. Some of you that see this know my brother… some may know something or heard something. Where there’s smoke there’s fire. What if it was your kin? Would you still keep quiet? RIP
People sayin One is in jail on shooting a shotgun and his brother and one more is on streets still getting away with murder.
I’m certain there are some building code or health code violations that could keep the place shut down, until memories got better.
Question the person who was involved in the shoving match?
This is not the type of establishment that has a lot of unknown patrons, I’m willing to bet everyone knows everybody else and has for a long time. The bartender knows the people coming in and out of there and so do the regulars!!! Time for y’all to start talking, stop protecting this person.
Better be glad I don’t know, and hope I don’t find out, cuz if they offer a reward I’ll be singing like a bird! LoL
Where’s the 10k reward for this murder? Why isn’t this as important? I’m sure this mans life was important to his loved ones.
When I heard it called “A shoving match” I knew someone was trying to down play it.
The reason for down playing it was they probably knew the one doing it.
I wonder what their next excuse will be?
WITNESSES, how many bar patrons would walk away from a shoving match(fight)!
I’d be looking at ” the witnesses” who said they saw him in a shoving match.. They surely can give description of who he was in this shoving match with. IF they do not know that person. My guess is they may very well be THAT person.. This is a travisty and someone knows something! If they did not see it, then they may have over heard someone talking about it. Or even bragging to a buddy.. The Buddy needs to do the right thing and come forward.. What if he had been your family?! Your brother? Your cousin or life long friend? Come on people! What could he have possibly done to deserve this?!?!
