Elijah Laurence Paris, 21, was fatally shot the evening of Wednesday, April 5, 2017, in Pittsburgh’s Shadyside neighborhood. The shooting happened shortly before 6 p.m. in the 5500 block of Kent Street. First responders found Paris wounded and he was taken to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Initial reports say the shooting may have followed an argument that escalated. Witnesses described a chaotic scene with many people scattering after the gunfire. The Pittsburgh Bureau of Police Homicide Squad handled the investigation, but no arrests or suspect identifications have been publicly released and the case is believed to have gone cold.

The family and community remain without answers. Does anyone who was in the Shadyside area that evening or who knew Elijah have information that could help investigators?
