On Wednesday afternoon, September 10, 2014, Lynneil Williams, 31, was fatally shot while seated in a booth at the Fireside Caribbean Restaurant in Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania. His meal had just been placed before him at about 3:40 p.m. when an African American man described as having a bushy beard, wearing a white T-shirt and a dark baseball cap, walked directly to Williams, shot him in the chest, and fled out a rear door.
Williams was taken to a nearby hospital but died later that evening. Allegheny County Police homicide detectives canvassed the area and appealed to patrons who were present to come forward. Investigators say the attack appears to have been targeted rather than random, but no arrest has been made and the case remains unsolved.
If anyone was in the restaurant that afternoon or has information about the man who entered and fled through the rear door, please share what you know.
