Ahmir Tuli was an 18-year-old killed by gunfire on February 21, 2021, outside his mother’s bar and grill, Preeti’s Pit, in Pittsburgh’s Strip District. The shooting happened while Ahmir was helping his mother at the restaurant; the suspected shooter, Howard Hawkins, had been involved in an altercation inside the bar before the shooting.

Authorities say Hawkins was later located in North Hollywood, California, and arrested by U.S. Marshals and charged with homicide. In connection with the case, Hawkins’ girlfriend, Chayla Robinson, was arrested and charged with hindering apprehension or prosecution; she is accused of helping Hawkins flee the scene and dispose of evidence. Prosecutors have relied on city camera footage and witness testimony, and Ahmir’s mother, Preeti Tuli, has been a key witness.

Ahmir had recently graduated from North Hills High School and was remembered by family and friends as a loving son and passionate sports enthusiast. Does anyone have information about Ahmir, the events that night, or the people involved?
