Benjamin Franklin Dixon III, 33, was shot multiple times and found dead on the 1200 block of Rebecca Avenue in North Braddock, Pennsylvania, on July 29, 2021, at about 2:30 a.m. First responders performed CPR but he was pronounced dead at the scene. A neighbor reported hearing six gunshots and later saw Dixon’s body on the street.

Dixon was described by family and friends as a caring father to six children, a supportive son and a protective brother. He graduated from Frew Mill High School and worked as an electrician, a skill tied to his lifelong aptitude for working with his hands. His sudden death devastated his family and community.

The Allegheny County Police homicide unit handled the investigation and identified a suspect. What can readers who knew Dixon or who were in North Braddock that night share that might help clarify what happened?
