Devonte Snowden was 19 when he was killed on February 22, 2012, in Pittsburgh’s Lincoln-Lemington neighborhood. At about 1 a.m. he was found inside a vehicle on the 7200 block of Somerset Street with gunshot wounds to the face and was pronounced dead at the scene by responding officers.

Local accounts at the time placed his death within a rising homicide trend in Pittsburgh that year, with many victims being young Black men and several violent incidents concentrated in neighborhoods including Lincoln-Lemington. The motive in Snowden’s killing remains unclear and no arrests have been announced; authorities asked anyone with information to come forward to assist the investigation.

Did anyone in the Lincoln-Lemington area see activity near the 7200 block of Somerset Street around 1 a.m. on February 22, 2012?
