Ta’Ron Reid, 45, was found shot multiple times and pronounced dead at a residence on the 500 block of Ridge Avenue in East Pittsburgh the night of September 16, 2025. Police and medics were called just after 10:30 p.m.; authorities later confirmed his identity and age and local obituaries listed September 16, 2025 as his date of death.

Investigators quickly focused on a single suspect, the victim’s 19-year-old son, Tayron Perry Reid of Pittsburgh. Allegheny County police obtained a criminal homicide warrant and on September 18 described Tayron Reid as wanted in connection with the killing and potentially armed and dangerous. The search ended when Tayron Reid turned himself in and was booked into the Allegheny County Jail on Monday, September 29.

Court records and local reports indicate Tayron Reid has been charged with criminal homicide and was denied bail while awaiting further proceedings; a preliminary hearing was scheduled for October 10 in Pittsburgh Municipal Court. If anyone knew Ta’Ron Reid or has information about what happened that night, please share what can help investigators.
