Aliah Johnson was 17 when she was fatally shot on November 20, 2021, in the Point Breeze neighborhood of Pittsburgh. According to police, the shooting occurred at the home of her 16-year-old boyfriend, Emeka Moye-King. Authorities say Moye-King handed Johnson his Glock-30 to look at, went to the bathroom, then retrieved the gun with his finger on the trigger; it discharged and Johnson was struck in the face.

Moye-King was charged with criminal homicide and possession of a firearm by a minor. Police reported the gun had been illegally obtained and was not provided by a parent or guardian. Johnson’s family and the community have remembered her as loving, caring, and active in local programs such as the McKeesport Girls Softball League and a Mon Valley community empowerment program; her family has discussed creating a foundation in her name.

Does anyone have information about Aliah’s activities in Point Breeze or the Mon Valley programs that could help the family or investigators?
