On the evening of March 19, 2018, 22-year-old Shawn Brandon was shot in the chest at the corner of Marengo and Eccles streets in Pittsburgh’s South Side Slopes. Witnesses saw him leaning into the driver’s side window of a red car; a gunshot followed and Brandon ran toward bystanders on Esop Way, saying he had been shot and asking someone to call 911 before collapsing. While a 911 operator questioned him, Brandon audibly identified Amasa Camp as his shooter; he was taken to UPMC Mercy Hospital and pronounced dead.

Investigators arrested 21-year-old Amasa L. Camp and charged him with homicide and illegal possession of a firearm. Another witness, Joseph Graham, later identified 21-year-old Keenan L. Lowe as the shooter, and prosecutors charged Lowe with homicide as well. Police said the shooting occurred during a planned marijuana sale; one account says Brandon was in a car with Lowe, Camp, and Graham when a pistol came out and a struggle began. Lowe was later acquitted of criminal homicide but convicted of robbery and criminal conspiracy and sentenced to two to eight years; Camp and Graham also faced charges.

Did anyone in the South Side Slopes that night see the red car or the people involved?
