Mysteries & Unsolved: a resident's unsolved killing, on ground that is not the town's

Notre Dame Magazine, read whole; the boundary stated from the record

The town's one tie to an unsolved murder is a resident tie, and the boundary prints first. Helen Tobolski, 62, of Roseland, a University of Notre Dame custodial employee of thirteen years, was shot to death on 22 March 1975 in the university's aerospace engineering building during a break-in. The crime scene is Notre Dame's ground, not Roseland's — the item stands in this build at resident-tie strength, boundary printed, and is claimed for no other town's file either. The carrier, Notre Dame Magazine, calls it "the only known murder on campus in Notre Dame history" and states the killer "has never been found"; Father Hesburgh offered a $5,000 reward; the evidence is stored; and the case is not among the three the university recently reopened. For the town itself, the companion finding is a negative: no mystery or unsolved case occurring in Roseland was found in any class searched — the town's unsolved file is this one boundary item, and nothing else.
