Editing Jeffrey Dahmer (section)

===1978===
* '''June 18''': Steven Mark Hicks, 18. Last seen hitchhiking to a rock concert in Chippewa Lake Park in Bath, Ohio.{{sfn|Norris|1992|p=89}} By Dahmer's admission, Hicks caught his attention because he was bare-chested. Dahmer bludgeoned him with a dumbbell and strangled him to death with this instrument before he dismembered the corpse. He then pulverized Hicks' bones with a hammer and scattered them in woodland behind the Dahmer family home.<ref>{{Cite news |date=July 31, 1991 |title=Bone Fragments, Many Human, Are Found at Suspect's Ohio Home |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1991/07/31/us/bone-fragments-many-human-are-found-at-suspect-s-ohio-home.html |access-date=April 25, 2025 |newspaper=[[The New York Times]] |language=en-US |issn=0362-4331}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Human Bone Fragments Found Near Confessed Killer's Boyhood Home |url=https://www.tampabay.com/archive/1991/07/31/human-bone-fragments-found-near-confessed-killer-s-boyhood-home/|date=October 13, 2005|orig-date=July 31, 1991 |access-date=April 25, 2025 |newspaper=[[Tampa Bay Times]] |language=en}}</ref>
