L.A. Truvillion, Sr., was 25 when he was fatally shot on May 22, 2018, in York, Pennsylvania. He was engaged and a father of three. The shooting occurred in the area of North Penn Street and Smyser Street.

The shooter was identified as Robert Johnson II, 25, of York.

He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Authorities described the killing as senseless and said there was no reason for the shooting.

Truvillion’s fiancée, Dorethea Elliott, and their children were left to cope with his loss; family remembered him as a dependable, sweet person whose absence created a significant void.
