John Andujar III, a 17-year-old ninth-grade student at Dieruff High School, was shot dead in the predawn hours of May 10, 2006, in front of his home at 1029 S. Carlisle St., in the Cumberland Gardens housing development in Allentown, Pennsylvania. He had been lured outside by a text message at about 2:55 a.m. A car pulled up, he spoke briefly with an occupant, began to walk away, was called back, and was then shot twice in the neck. His sister heard the shots and found him; he was taken to St. Luke’s Hospital-Fountain Hill and pronounced dead at 3:26 a.m. The family had moved to Allentown from New York City to escape crime and were left devastated.

Allentown police opened a homicide investigation and, at the time, the district attorney said there were leads but no one in custody. The case remains unsolved and is listed as a cold case; the Cold Case Unit is asking the public for information that could help identify those responsible and bring justice for John Andujar III.

Did anyone in the neighborhood or anyone who knew John notice unusual activity or receive suspicious messages that night?
