On the morning of June 28, 2012, two young men were found shot to death inside a parked car on Buena Vista Street in Pittsburgh’s Perry South neighborhood. A passerby discovered the bodies of 21-year-old Matthew Todd Burton and 15-year-old Deondre Kenny at about 6 a.m.; investigators determined both had been shot in the head.

Police linked the double homicide to a recent spike in gang-related violence on the city’s North Side and reported that Matthew Burton may have had ties to a local gang. The shooting was one of at least 22 shootings in the area over a five-day period, spurring increased patrols. Authorities did not immediately name any suspects and appealed to the public for information as the investigation continued.

If anyone has information about that night or knew Matthew Burton or Deondre Kenny, please come forward with tips that could help the case.
