On March 9, 2020, 22-year-old Abraham Penn was shot and killed outside the HP gas station at East 139th and Kinsman Road on Cleveland’s east side at about 10:00 a.m. He was found lying in the street and was pronounced dead at the scene. A 27-year-old man, Anthony Pruitt III, was found with a gunshot wound to the leg in the parking lot and taken to University Hospitals.

Cleveland police reported Penn and Pruitt were involved in a physical altercation before the shooting. According to that account, Penn fired first, shooting Pruitt in the leg and dropping the gun; Pruitt then picked up the weapon and fired multiple shots that killed Penn. Pruitt was taken into custody in connection with the incident and the case remains under investigation.

Did anyone who was in that area on the morning of March 9, 2020, see what happened or have information that could help the investigation?
