Taeshaun S. Caldwell was 18 when he was shot and killed in Pittsburgh’s Larimer neighborhood in the early hours of Wednesday, May 9, 2018. Police responded to a report of a gunshot around 12:10 a.m. and found his body on the ground between two homes; it was later determined he had been fatally shot at that location.

Known to some as Spark, Caldwell is remembered by a mentor as respectful, very intelligent, and quick-witted, with a smile that could light up a room. Despite an extensive investigation, no suspects have been publicly identified, no arrests were announced, and the case has since gone cold. The motive and circumstances behind the shooting remain unsolved.

If anyone in Larimer that night remembers seeing or hearing something that could help, please come forward with information.
