Damon Sims, 30, was shot outside his home on West Marion Avenue in Youngstown, Ohio, following an argument with a man who had parked in front of the house. He was found with gunshot wounds on August 22, 2019, and later died at the hospital. No arrests have been made and the investigation remains open.

Detective Sgt. Dave Sweeney said investigators need a witness willing to testify in court to make an arrest. Sims family members have expressed frustration; his uncle Daniel Sims said the police know who did it but have not arrested anyone. The case has been hampered by community disruptions tied to the COVID-19 crisis, which affected efforts to gather information and hold recovery meetings.

Anyone with information about the shooting on August 22, 2019, is asked to contact the Youngstown police.
