Matthew Anthony Zinnermon, a 32-year-old African American man from Chesapeake, Virginia, was shot and killed in the early morning hours of May 25, 2018, in Pittsburgh’s East Hills neighborhood near the Maple Hill Apartments. He was found around 4 a.m. with multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene.

A suspect, 24-year-old Leonard Bernard Hilton of the Sheraden neighborhood, was taken into custody but was mistakenly released from jail before homicide charges were filed. After learning of the outstanding arrest warrant, Hilton turned himself in and was charged with criminal homicide and firearms violations. His defense at first argued self-defense; later Hilton pleaded guilty to third-degree murder and received a term of 10 to 20 years in prison, to be followed by 10 years of probation.

Did anyone in the East Hills area see or hear anything unusual around 4 a.m. on May 25, 2018?
