Mark Williams, a 34-year-old Black man from the North Side, was killed in Pittsburgh on June 23, 2015, after gunfire shattered the early-morning quiet in the Perry South neighborhood. The shooting occurred around 1:20 a.m. in the 2100 block of Koerner Avenue, where Williams was outside a relative’s home and was struck multiple times in the chest. He was found with multiple gunshot wounds, taken to a local hospital, and later died.

Police said the shooter or shooters may have fled on foot. No suspect was publicly identified in the immediate aftermath, and later listings continued to state that no one had been charged; the investigation remained open. This was a killing outside a family home that left relatives and friends grieving in the street on Koerner Avenue. If anyone has information about that night or knows something that could help the investigation, please come forward.
