Put your sleuthing skills to the test and see if you can crack the case before time runs out. Don't miss out on this exciting opportunity to step into the world of crime-solving!

Last year the streets of Sharpsburg were filled with 200+ people trying to solve the mystery of who stole the iconic "Andy Warhol Painting of the Heinz Ketchup Bottles." Participants filled the streets, collecting clues and finally it was determined that Gino , the owner of Ginos' Pizza was the master mind thief behind the caper. Gino was arrested but something was off. Katie from Love Katie Distilling and Nanci from Ketchup City Creative were seen exchanging money when Gino was arrested. Now a murder on Main Street has taken place and we need your help unraveling the mystery!
