Darius Grimsley, 29, was shot and killed on August 14, 2011, on Pittsburgh’s North Side. The shooting happened at the intersection of Alpine Avenue and Garfield Street after an argument escalated. Grimsley was found lying in the street with a gunshot wound to the right side of his chest and was pronounced dead at the scene.

The killing occurred amid a sharp uptick in shootings across Pittsburgh in early August 2011, especially in the North Side and Knoxville, a wave described by police as likely driven by retaliatory motives. Chief Nate Harper noted that many victims, including Grimsley, had criminal histories and that investigators have been hampered by witnesses who have not come forward. No one has provided information about this shooting and the investigation remains open.

Did anyone in the community see or hear anything that night at Alpine and Garfield that could help investigators?
