Timothy Lanelle Steele, 45, was fatally shot on October 4, 2018, in a double homicide on Cleveland’s east side. The shooting happened about 3:30 p.m. in the 17000 block of Holly Hill Drive. Steele was taken to a nearby hospital and later died of his wounds; the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner reported that both Steele and the other victim, 52-year-old Resean Lance Payne, were shot multiple times.

Police say 39-year-old Jason Gideons entered Steele’s home and shot both men, then fled to a nearby McDonald’s where officers arrested him. A handgun was recovered at the scene.

Did anyone in the area see activity around Holly Hill Drive that afternoon or have information about the two victims or the events leading up to the shooting?
