Dwight Nolan was standing in his own living room on Crescent Drive in Penn Hills when gunfire tore through the home around 8 p.m. on October 21, 2022, killing the 31-year-old. Nearly four years later, no one has been arrested, and investigators are now asking the public for help cracking the case.
According to WPXI, Allegheny County police are seeking new leads in the unsolved homicide, a renewed appeal also reported by TribLIVE. Police say an unknown person standing outside the home on the 300 block of Crescent Drive fired multiple times into the house, striking Nolan as he stood inside.
A Shooting That Still Has No Suspect
The outlet's report offers few additional details about that October night, leaving the identity of the shooter and any possible motive unknown. What is clear is that the gunfire came from outside the residence and reached Nolan inside his own living room, a detail that underscores how suddenly the violence unfolded for a man simply at home.
Investigators have not said whether any suspects have been developed since 2022, and the case remains open nearly four years after Nolan's death. Penn Hills police have not released further specifics on the investigation's status beyond the renewed call for information.
How to Submit a Tip
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call the County Police Tip Line at 1-833-ALL-TIPS, and callers can remain anonymous, as reported by TribLIVE. Callers can remain anonymous, giving residents who may have witnessed something that night, or who have heard details since, a way to come forward without identifying themselves.
For a community still waiting for answers, the renewed appeal is a reminder that the case has not been closed. Allegheny County police continue to treat Nolan's death as an active, unsolved homicide.
