On the evening of May 19, 2021, a burst of gunfire in a Milwaukee neighborhood killed 55-year-old Tareyton Pierson near the intersection of 75th Street and Carmen Avenue. Another man was wounded in the same incident; his identity and condition were not widely reported.

Details about what led to the shooting, any motive, and whether there were suspects have not been made public. The case remains one of several unsolved gun homicides in Milwaukee, and family members continue to seek answers as investigators have not publicly identified or charged anyone in connection with Pierson’s death.

If anyone knew Tareyton, saw activity around 75th and Carmen on May 19, 2021, or has information that could help, please come forward.
