Sheldon Lipford Jr., 23, of Rochester, New York, was shot on the night of October 7, 2014. Police were called to Pearl Street near Monroe High School at about 10 p.m. after reports of gunfire and a crash. Investigators said Lipford was shot multiple times in a driveway, managed to climb into his car and try to flee, then lost control and crashed near the school. He was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital and died shortly afterward.

Initial reports noted no arrests as investigators pieced together witness accounts and other fragments from the scene. Nearly nine months later, on July 3, 2015, police announced the arrest of Tomias Shaw of Brighton on a murder charge; Rochelle Crann of Brighton was also taken into custody on separate weapon and controlled-substance allegations. Court records show Shaw later pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter and first-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, with a judgment dated March 1, 2016.

Did anyone who knew Sheldon or who was in the Pearl Street area that night see something that could help clarify what happened?
