Delfonte Ellis, 43, was found fatally shot on Shawnee Street in Pittsburgh’s Hill District late one November night in 2010. A passerby discovered him around 10:30 p.m., and paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene from multiple gunshot wounds. He had been due to start a night shift as a housekeeper at the University of Pittsburgh’s Scaife Hall.

A former Marine and a six-year employee of the university, Ellis also worked a second job to support his four children. Co-workers and neighbors remembered him as hardworking and joyful, a youth baseball coach and a father who carried his young daughter to school. Police canvassed the neighborhood for witnesses and reported that his personal belongings remained with him, with nothing apparently stolen. No suspects were identified and no arrests have been announced.

Does anyone in the Hill District who knew Delfonte or saw activity on Shawnee Street that night have information to share?
