Jerry Shelton, a 35-year-old African American man, was killed on March 9, 2016, in a mass shooting at a backyard party in Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, near Pittsburgh. About fifteen people were at the gathering; shortly before 11:00 p.m., two gunmen opened fire. One shooter fired a .40-caliber pistol from a nearby alley and the other used a 7.62 mm rifle from the yard of an adjacent house. The attack was described as planned and calculated, and most victims suffered head wounds.

Shelton was one of several fatalities; the dead included his sisters Brittany Powell and Chanetta Powell, his cousin Tina Shelton, and family friend Shada Mahone. Chanetta Powell was pregnant and her unborn baby was also declared a fatality. Three other people were wounded, two critically. Cheron Shelton and Robert Thomas were initially charged; charges against Thomas were later dropped and Cheron Shelton was acquitted at trial in 2020. A $20,000 reward was announced for information leading to arrests, but the gunmen have not been identified and the case remains unsolved.

Does anyone who was in Wilkinsburg that night or who knew Jerry or the other victims have information that could help bring answers?
