Robert Lee Barnes Jr. was 20 when he was fatally shot on July 19, 2008, in the Sheraden neighborhood of Pittsburgh. A former basketball standout at Langley High School and a father, Barnes was shot once after an argument with another man inside a shop on Hillsboro Street and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Pittsburgh homicide detectives investigated and appealed to the public for information to identify and apprehend the shooter. No motive for the argument or the shooting was made public, and subsequent reports have not named an arrest or suspect in the case.

Does anyone remember that day on Hillsboro Street or have information that could help bring closure to Barnes’s family?
