Man murdered while singing Linkin Park at karaoke.

A man was shot and killed last Friday, the 11th, while singing a Linkin Park at a karaoke night in Ohio.

Benjamin “Donkey” Hawk was at Louie's Corner House in Buckeye Lake with his girlfriend for a karaoke night.

According to authorities (via Loudwire ), Richard Lindgren, 59, shot his ex-wife's new boyfriend while he was singing "One More Light," the title track and haunting ballad from Linkin Park's 2017 album.

Hawk and Lindgren's ex-wife had been dating for a few months and arrived at the bar together about an hour before the killer.

A witness, DJ Robert Humble, told ABC 6 : “There was no confrontation, no shouting. He simply went in, shot him, and left.”

According to the DJ, Lindgren would show up at the venue and cause trouble: “Sometimes I’d see him saying hateful things when his ex got up to sing. He’d curse at her, criticize her character. I told him two weeks ago — if he acted like that again, he wouldn’t be welcome.”

Benjamin “Donkey” Hawk was the father of two daughters. Relatives created a GoFundMe to help cover his funeral expenses and care for his children.

Benhamin's brother, David, told The Columbus Dispatch that his late brother was a rising voice and "used karaoke to share his emotions with everyone." He continued, "He always took care of the people around him. Even if it meant going without himself."

“One More Light” has become an emotional anthem for grief and remembrance. Now, it is tragically linked to a moment of violence.
