Major crime investigators in HRM are still pleading for witnesses to a murder in Dartmouth to come forward – 13 years after it happened.

Jason MacCullough was found dead on a path between two buildings on Pinecrest Drive around 2:30 a.m. on Aug. 28, 1999.

Police say there’s nothing to suggest the 19-year-old was involved in any kind of criminal activity, and believe his killing was a random act.

Investigators say the path MacCullough died on was a well-travelled shortcut and it’s likely there were several people around at the time of his death.

On the 13^th anniversary of the murder, police are asking anyone with information that could lead to an arrest to contact them at 902-490-5333.

Anonymous tips can be submitted to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
