On a winter afternoon in Pittsburgh, the life of 26-year-old Lamunte Hall was brought to a violent end. On December 1, 2014, in the city's Lincoln-Lemington neighborhood, Hall was discovered inside a parked vehicle on Manning Street, having been fatally shot. The incident, which occurred just after 1:30 p.m., also left a 23-year-old woman with a gunshot wound to her arm; she was expected to recover.
At the time of the shooting, witnesses reported seeing a Black male fleeing the scene on foot. Despite this initial lead, the investigation into Hall's death has not led to any publicly announced arrests or the identification of a suspect. In the days and years that have followed the shooting, details about a potential motive or the circumstances leading to the violence have remained scarce.
Lamunte Hall's death was one of numerous homicides that occurred in Allegheny County in 2014. As of early 2015, his case was among many from the previous year where no charges had been filed and the investigation was considered ongoing. There have been no subsequent reports to indicate a change in the status of the investigation, leaving the question of who was responsible for his death unanswered.
