John Cleggett IV, 22, was found shot in the chest and later pronounced dead at University Hospitals after being discovered in a vacant lot in Cleveland’s Mt. Pleasant neighborhood on October 11, 2020. Police said Cleggett may have been involved in an argument with an unknown person before the shooting, but no suspect information has been released and no arrests have been announced.

The homicide unit responded to the scene and investigators have urged anyone with information to come forward or submit anonymous tips through Crimestoppers. Cleggett is survived by his father, Lee Whitfield, his 3-year-old son Aveyon, and 17 siblings; his mother, Johnay Cleggett, died four years earlier. The community has expressed grief and shared memories of him.

Does anyone who was in Mt. Pleasant on October 11, 2020, or who knew John Cleggett have information that could help investigators?
