On a September Thursday evening in 2023, 25-year-old Danasia Lighty was sitting in her car on Fleming Avenue in Pittsburgh’s Brighton Heights after returning from work when gunfire erupted. A ShotSpotter alert detected 12 rounds in the area just before 11 p.m. First responders found Danasia in the vehicle with multiple gunshot wounds; she was treated on scene and taken to a hospital in very critical condition but later died of her injuries.

Pittsburgh police described the shooting as targeted, saying a single suspect walked up to the car, opened fire, then fled. Authorities noted a separate nearby shooting that wounded a man in the leg could be related, though that link was not confirmed. Danasia’s mother, Angel Lighty, remembered her as playful and loving. The family asked neighbors to check security cameras for footage that might help identify the shooter. No arrests had been announced as of late 2023.

If anyone saw activity on Fleming Avenue that night or has camera footage from the area, can you contact investigators with what you know?
