In the late summer of 2010, the life of a young Pittsburgh man was tragically cut short. Twenty-year-old Tywaun Johnson was in the city's Hill District on the evening of August 16th when he was shot and killed. The incident occurred on Chauncey Drive, a street that would become the site of remembrance for his grieving family and friends.
In the years following the shooting, those who knew and loved Tywaun gathered to mark what would have been his birthday, holding vigils in his memory.
Despite these continued efforts to keep his story alive, the central question of who was responsible for his death remained unanswered. Law enforcement officials have not publicly identified a motive for the shooting, and no arrests have been made in the case. The killer of Tywaun Johnson remains at large, and the investigation into his unsolved murder continues.
