David Hurley, 34, of Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania, was shot in the early hours of June 13, 1992, while driving to pick up donuts for a Boy Scout canoe trip. He left home around 1:30 a.m. and, while driving west on Route 22 in Wilkins Township, was sideswiped by a young man in a light-colored Honda. The two pulled over near Carl’s Tavern; after Hurley exited his car he was punched and shot in the chest, then shot again as he tried to flee.

Hurley managed to drive home and tell his wife he had been shot. She called emergency services and he was taken to UPMC Presbyterian Hospital. He initially appeared to be responding but later developed internal bleeding from a lacerated liver and died around 6:30 a.m. that morning. Before he passed, Hurley described the shooter as a young Black male driving a gold or champagne-colored Honda Prelude, possibly a 1989 or 1990 model.

The case remains unsolved. Investigators say they have pursued leads and received tips after the case was featured on television, and they believe they may know who is responsible but lack sufficient evidence to charge anyone. Authorities continue to seek information, especially from an unidentified woman believed to have potentially important details. If anyone has information about that night, please come forward.
