Anthony Pearson, 46, of Sandusky, Ohio, was shot and killed the night of August 2, 2017. He was found in his red pickup truck on Parkview Boulevard with a single bullet wound to the head, a wound the coroner ruled fatal.

Investigators focused on Joel Miles as the primary suspect. Video placed Miles near the scene shortly after the shooting, and witnesses said Miles had confronted Pearson at a store earlier that day and pointed a gun at him. Miles was arrested five days after the killing and later convicted of murder; court proceedings also produced convictions on cocaine trafficking charges.

Pearson’s death profoundly affected his family and the community. If anyone knew Anthony, saw his red pickup on Parkview Boulevard that night, or has information about the events leading up to August 2, 2017, please come forward.
