On the evening of Friday, December 29, 2023, responders were called to the 3700 block of Cresta Circle in Montgomery, Alabama, after reports of a shooting. Officers found 59-year-old David Pitts, a resident of nearby Lapine, with a fatal gunshot wound; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Montgomery police identified a suspect in the days afterward. On January 5, 2024, authorities announced the arrest of Samuel Robinson and charged him with capital murder in connection with Pitts’s death. Robinson was taken into custody and held at the Montgomery County Detention Facility without bond. Officials did not release a motive for the shooting.

Are there details about Pitts’s last hours, his activities that evening, or witnesses in the Cresta Circle area that anyone can share?
