Seventeen-year-old Raymond O’Neal, known as Tank and who described himself as an upcoming artist online, was shot dead on the sidewalk of Upland Terrace in Penn Hills on Tuesday, January 19, 2016. Paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene after neighbors reported hearing as many as ten gunshots in the 8900 block of the residential street.

Investigators noted O’Neal had been wounded in an earlier shooting in June the previous year on Frankstown Road, not far from where he was killed, and that he had been uncooperative with police after that incident. Detectives looked into whether the two shootings were connected and followed reports of a vehicle seen near the scene, but no witnesses immediately came forward and the inquiry stalled.

No arrests have been announced and the identity of the person or persons responsible remains unknown. Did anyone in the Penn Hills area see or hear anything that night or know more about O’Neal’s activities leading up to his death?
