Tirell Shortridge was found shot to death in a driveway in the 4800 block of America Street in New Orleans in the fall of 2010. Investigators later figured out the shooting actually happened farther down the street, in the 4500 block. So he was hit and still made it a few blocks before he collapsed.

His obituary ran on November 12, 2010. Other than that, the public record is thin. No age has been released, and no suspect or arrest has been announced.

If Tirell was running or trying to get somewhere, maybe toward someone's house, the people on that stretch of America Street may have seen more than they realized. Did anyone know him?
