The fatal shooting of a Toledo-based EDWIN DARE drummer Tommy Kollman has friends and fans still looking for answers.

On December 15, 2012, Jeff Kollman (BOMBASTIC MEATBATS, GLENN HUGHES, MOGG/WAY) was in Los Angeles when he learned that Tommy had been shot and killed by a sheriff’s deputy in his hometown of Ft. Meyers, Florida. Police reports indicate few details surrounding the incident, in which Kollman was allegedly pulled over in his car by the deputy, and was then shot at nearly 15 times. Family and friends are looking for answers, but also feel the sheriff’s office has attacked Kollman’s character with little evidence to support.

“The following day they came out with a story that Tom Kollman was carrying ammunition and handcuffs and a ski mask,” Edwin Dare’s former band manager Calvin Clayton told Northwestohio.com
. He argues, “None of this was in any reports or disclosed to us in any way.”

This weekend, they once again took the Toledo stage to honor their fallen friend.
