Sean Lyons was 20 when he was shot and killed inside a club in Pittsburgh’s Homewood neighborhood in the early hours of a Sunday morning in March 2017. The shooting happened about 4:30 a.m. at the New Brotherhood Motorcycle Club near Kelly Street and Brushton Avenue. Officers and paramedics found Lyons, described as a Black male, with gunshot wounds to the neck and chest; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

The club was reportedly crowded, and police said an argument occurred inside before the shots were fired, but details about what sparked the violence were scarce. A separate fatal shooting nearby the day before involved a man who had also been at the club shortly beforehand. The building housing the unlicensed club was condemned, and while police searched the premises for surveillance footage they arrested one person on drug possession charges unconnected to the homicide. As of early 2018 the investigation was ongoing and no suspects had been publicly named or arrested in connection with Lyons’ killing.

If anyone was at the club that night or has information about what led to the argument, please share what was seen or heard.
