Hakim was found shot to death in the driver's seat of a Chevrolet Tahoe near East Moody Avenue and Carlisle Street on April 21. Officers were dispatched there after a call about gunshots.
Police said there were six gunshots in the front driver's window and a rear passenger side door window was also shattered, apparently from a round that was fired inside.
Angelina Masi has already been arrested in connection with the shooting, charged with conspiracy to commit homicide. Investigators said they believe Masi took the suspected shooter to the area minutes before it happened.
Anyone who knows about where Howard may be is asked to call dispatch at 724-656-9300 or 911. People can also submit a tip online.
