Early morning gunfire rattled Homewood North, a neighborhood in Pittsburgh, as police responded to a ShotSpotter alert indicating multiple shots had been fired. The Pittsburgh Bureau of Police from Zone 5 rushed to the scene on the 1200 block of Nolan Court around 4 a.m., according to a public safety blotter released by the City of Pittsburgh.
Arriving officers found an adult male with a minor injury to his ear, believed to have been caused by one of the 18 rounds discharged. Reports suggest that two adult males were outside when one entered a nearby home, followed by the other individual, who then opened fire into the residence before fleeing in a vehicle. The injured man declined medical transport when paramedics arrived, opting not to go to the hospital.
The investigation to piece together the circumstances surrounding this early morning violence is active and ongoing.
