Ernest Adams, 39, was killed inside a duplex on Malden Street in Pittsburgh’s Marshall-Shadeland neighborhood on the morning of August 17, 2021. Police responded shortly after 5 a.m. following a ShotSpotter alert, forced entry, and found Adams behind the front door with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene and his death was treated as a homicide.

Initial activity on the block included a heavy police and detective presence and door-to-door inquiries. Investigators later said Arlo security video from the home showed a woman inside with Adams and a gunman wearing a shirt with a PUMA logo firing into the residence; court paperwork described that the gunman allowed the woman to exit the home before shots were fired and that a second shooter was involved. City surveillance and license plate reader data later led investigators to a maroon Chevrolet, and footage reportedly tied the PUMA shirt to a man identified as Jermale Lewis and connected the vehicle to Ramone Harrison. Police said digital and GPS evidence, call records, and social media searches were used to trace movements before and after the shooting.

If anyone knew Ernest Adams, his movements that morning, or saw a maroon Chevrolet in the area, what information can be shared with investigators?
