Halifax police still trying to solve 2000 shooting death of Tyrone Oliver
Tyrone Oliver died in hospital after he was found suffering from gunshot wounds in the 2400 block of Creighton Street in Halifax on July 20, 2000. (Halifax Regional Police) Sunday will mark 25 years since 20-year-old Tyrone Oliver was shot and killed in Halifax, and police are still trying to solve his murder. Halifax Regional Police responded to a report of shots fired in the 2400 block of Creighton Street after 11 p.m. on July 20, 2000. Officers found Oliver at a basketball court, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to hospital, where he died later that night. Police also responded to two stabbings and an assault in the same area around the same time and they believe all four incidents are related. Oliver's murder is part of the Rewards for Major Unsolved Crimes Program, which offers up to $150,000 for information that leads to an arrest and conviction in certain cases. 'Investigators believe there are people who have information that could help solve Tyrone's murder,' said Halifax Regional Police in a news release Friday. 'Investigators hope that the passage of time will encourage them to do the right thing and come forward with what they know. It is never too late to come forward and the smallest piece of information may be just what is needed to progress the investigation.' Police are asking anyone with information about Oliver's murder to contact them at 902-490-5020 or the rewards program at 1-888-710-9090.
