Brian Hall, 18, was found fatally shot on Annan Way in Pittsburgh’s Homewood neighborhood on a Thursday night in August 2014. A passerby who first mistook him for a doll discovered he had been shot multiple times, with wounds to his head, right hand, and right leg; police believe he may have lain on the street for about an hour before being found.

Authorities had active warrants for Hall at the time of his death stemming from a May incident in Wilkinsburg when he was 17 and accused of attempted homicide and other charges. The day before Hall was killed, New Kensington police identified him as the primary suspect in a double homicide that left Shannon Bongartz and John Russ dead, an incident investigators tied to a dispute over drugs and money.

No arrests had been announced and police had not publicly identified suspects or a motive as of early 2015. If anyone knew Brian, his movements in Homewood that night, or has other information, please come forward.
