Bajomo Adelani, 50, was killed while working as a jitney driver in Pittsburgh in the early hours of January 20, 2010. A Green 1992 Acura carrying Adelani and a 30-year-old passenger was blocked on Belleau Street in the Fineview neighborhood around 2:30 a.m. when a minivan pulled up, two men got out and opened fire. Adelani was hit in the chest and died at the scene; his passenger survived with gunshot wounds to the arms. Investigators later said they believed the passenger had been the intended target.

Adelani had lived in Pittsburgh for about 15 years after emigrating from Nigeria and supported a fiancée, a young son, and two daughters back home and in college. Police launched a homicide probe and appealed for information, but no suspects have been publicly identified or arrested and the case remains unsolved. If anyone knew Adelani, or saw a minivan or activity on Belleau Street around 2:30 a.m. that night, contact investigators with any information.
