James W. Goodwine was 21 when he was shot in Pittsburgh’s Hill District in the early hours of Sunday, August 23, 2020. At about 3:30 a.m., a ShotSpotter alert brought police to the 600 block of Elmore Street, where officers found Goodwine with gunshot wounds to his chest and leg. He was taken to UPMC Mercy Hospital and later pronounced dead.

Police did not immediately identify a suspect or a motive, and in the days and weeks that followed no persons of interest, arrests, or leads were announced publicly. The case remains an unsolved homicide, with Goodwine’s family and community left without answers.

If anyone has information about what happened that night on Elmore Street or knew James, please come forward with tips for investigators.
