Mujahid Abdur-Rahman, 39, was shot and killed on August 31, 2025, while working on a vehicle on the 3300 block of East 142nd Street in Cleveland’s Mount Pleasant neighborhood. Officers responded to a ShotSpotter alert around 2:45 p.m., found him with multiple gunshot wounds, and he was later pronounced dead at a hospital.

Two men approached before gunfire erupted and fled the scene; investigators opened a homicide probe but released no detailed suspect descriptions. Public incident logs and notices that list those lost to gun violence confirm his name, age, city, and the date of death but offer no motive and no further identifying details about the attackers.

The killing occurred over the Labor Day weekend and was one of two fatal investigations Cleveland police announced during that span. Does anyone who lived on East 142nd Street or was in Mount Pleasant that afternoon have information about unfamiliar vehicles or people in the area?
