Derek Price, 26, of West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, was shot and killed on March 12, 2016, at the Mon View Heights housing complex. He was taken to Mercy Hospital and later pronounced dead.

Police reports say Price and 22-year-old Zyaire James of Clairton had a confrontation tied to their mutual interest in the same woman. According to those reports, James shot Price after witnessing Price strike his girlfriend through a car window and reach for a gun on the front seat console. James was arrested the same day and charged with homicide.

The case went to trial and on January 10, 2018, a jury found James not guilty of homicide after about two hours of deliberation; the defense argued self-defense. If anyone knew Derek, was at Mon View Heights that day, or has information about the events that led to the shooting, please share what is known.
